Geocache Description:

Originally placed by GadgetMan & APRSBob in November of 2001, this cache was adopted by Metaphor in January 2005. Tuckahoe State Park near the softball field

This was the first cache I found when I started in March of 2002. By late 2004, it had fallen into a sad state of disrepair. I adopted and refurbished the cache with lots of goodies in January 2005.

Please completely reseal the cache container.

(original description: "We stayed here last night to watch the Leonids meteor shower (November 2001) with the local astronomy club and to perform ham radio meteor scatter. Very cold but a nice dark sky - lots of meteors, despite the ground haze. The cache is not hard to get to, but the campground is closed in the wintertime. Park outside (38 58.654N 075 55.769W) and hike in, if the gate is locked. Check the Tuckahoe State Park web site for activities details.

Enjoy the scenery, especially the nice night-time sky!")
