Welcome to Geocache at our
Demonstration
Forest!
Families will enjoy
this exciting quest for treasure while hiking and exploring our Demonstration Forest!
We are host to a geocache
at our Demonstration Forest in Williamsburg Township.
For those of you new to geocache, this
is a fun game of treasure hunting in the new-age for families, groups or
even alone. A Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to locate
something hidden on the earth (geo refers to earth and cache refers
to hiding or storing). It is best to start with a map of the area
that you are exploring. You can purchase one at our office in the Pine Crest Business
Park, 42 Engdahl Drive, Dover-Foxcroft for $5.00.
While navigating your way through the
demonstration forest you can follow our interpretive trail signs. Be
sure to bring a compass with you for safety measures, GPS's do not always
have one. Our location coordinates (geocache
waypoints) are:
Latitude
45 degrees, 22 minutes, 22.4 seconds North and Longitude 69 degrees, 5
minutes, 1.9 seconds West.
Our geocache
is a Traditional Cache consisting of a container, log book, and small treasures.
~Note your discovery in our log book.
~Take a treasure &
~Leave a treasure!
