3 - Sleeping Beauty Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

thegreeneyedlady: Unfortunately, someone took the puzzle pieces (princesses) which were in the caches thus breaking the series. The pieces were unique and difficult to obtain so the cache will need to be archived. We are happy so many geo cachers enjoyed the series.

Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Sleeping Beauty Series!




This series of caches is located on the Fosdick Preserve, a Newtown Forest Association property. It is approximately a 3 mile hike including the bonus cache, Maleficent. The preserve is open year round but is closed at night. No motorized vehicles; dogs allowed on leashes; hunting is not allowed.

NOTE: Please do NOT remove the princesses from the caches. They are required to find the seventh cache. Please bring your own pen/pencil to sign the log.


This series has eight caches plus one bonus cache:

  • First six caches will give you a digit to locate the seventh cache. Please read the write up for the seventh cache so that you know what clue is needed from the first six.
  • Seventh cache will contain a simple field puzzle which you need to solve in order to locate the eight and final cache. The field puzzle is simple...no books, internet, etc. are necessary to solve it.
  • Eighth cache is Sleeping Beauty, aka Aurora. She is waiting to be woken by a cacher.
  • Ninth cache is Maleficent. This is an evil little bonus cache which is not needed to get to the final.
Special thanks to Ottopol who kindly provided the guardians for the caches and to Guy Peterson from the Newtown Forest Association for allowing us to place these caches.
