The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular geocache, however, it is also part of the Allegheny GeoTrail (AGT), a publicly funded project designed to promote a pleasant and positive experience and image of the Allegheny National Forest region and its gateway communities. The AGT utilizes the growing interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the area in learning more about the unique attractions in the ten participating counties. This cache contains a unique self inking rubber stamp which you should use to stamp your Allegheny GeoTrail Passport to verify that you found it. When you have found a minimum of six AGT caches, you will be eligible to have your AGT passport validated and receive a commemorative AGT trackable geocoin at participating locations. You must have your official AGT passport with you when you find this cache in order to stamp it.

This cache is located just off the Ridge Trail of the 85 mile Susquehannock Trail System. The vista overlooks the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum. It also on the boundry of Denton Hill State Park. The shortest access to the cache is via the Thompson Road from U.S. Route 6 across from the Pine Log Motel. This is on the east side of Denton Hill. Take the Thompson Road south to the top of the hill. Here you will see a sign for "RIDGE TRAIL" on the right. Park here and hike the trail west about one half mile. Elevation starts around 2,270 and gradually climbs to 2,460 near the cache. There is no need to bushwack to the cache. Continue on the trail for a short bit after your GPS points 90 degrees to the right. You will see a small trail that cuts back to the right and this will take you to the cache location.
