Geocache Description:

This cache is in the Arcadia Management Area off of Escoheag Hill Road. There is some rock scrambling, but my 4 year old was more than up to the task.

Parking is located off of Escoheag Hill Road at N 41 35.200', W 71 45.356'. This is a nice walk through a glacial ledge area in the Arcadia Management Area. This is on the Escoheag Trail and more info can be found in Walks and Rambles in Rhode Island. You will see near the beginning of the trail the remnants of some buildings that were the Ledges Picnic Area. This is a beautiful walk any time of the year but is especially nice when the mountain laurel are in bloom.

My son put together the contents of this cache, so it is initially stocked with mostly toys. This cache is in an ammo box. During hunting season 200 square inches of dayglo orange is required and dogs are required to be leashed.

This hike is just over half a mile each way. I have stored a route file (.loc)for this cache if you are interested. Have Fun!
