Geocache Description:

Nice walk in the woods.

This is a nice wooded area with an open field known as “Square Field”, in Moorestown Township.
It is part of the Pompeston Creek tributary that empties into the Delaware River about 1.5 miles from the New Jersey American Water Intake. The Pompeston Creek Watershed is eight square miles in NJ’s Atlantic Coastal Plain. The Pompeston Creek Watershed Association (PCWA) received a grant from DEP as part of EPA’s Action Now funding, to improve water quality and to promote the ecological well being of the upper Pompeston Creek Watershed. Please take note of how nice this place is due to the hard work of the PCWA.
This is a two-part cache. The cache container is a plastic tupperware located at N39 58.abc and 074 58.xyz.
