Geocache Description:

This cache is located in Timberdoodle Flats. There is parking available near the trailhead. Please follow the bluebird trail starting at N41 51.339 W078 46.515. PLEASE do not park on the road and bushwhack in.

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. Click on the Allegheny GeoTrail Logo below to visit the AGT website at www.alleghenygeotrail.com for complete details and a listing of participating locations where you may pick up and validate AGT passports to receive your souvenir geocoin, trackable at www.geocaching.com .



The Timberdoodle Flats Interpretive trail is a 1.4 mile loop trail. This trail is located 1/4 mile east of the intersection of State Route 321 North and State Route 59. Timberdoodle is the nickname of the American Woodcock. It uses both the forest and open areas for mating and nesting. This trail has self-guided interpretive stops and a hardened surface for accessibility. We were informed by the ANF that this entire trail is handicap accessible.

PLEASE REHIDE THE CACHE VERY WELL TO PREVENT IT FROM BEING MUGGLED. IT IS NOT FAR OFF THE TRAIL AS YOU WILL SEE. WE WANT TO KEEP IT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE SO IT NEEDS TO BE WHERE IT IS, BUT WELL HIDDEN.


UPDATE 8-29-10: The cache keeps migrating so we felt we needed to increase the terrain unfortunately as it may/may not be handicap accessible depending on how it is hidden.
