Geocache Description:

An easy walk to a lovely view overlooking Stowe Village.

This cache is on the Sunset Rock property owned by the Stowe Land Trust. This area was cleared as a sheep pasture in the 1800s, reverted back to forest, and was purchased by the Stowe Land Trust in 1999. It includes a small network of walking trails on a hillside which makes a picturesque backdrop for Stowe Village. Near the top of the hill, a panoramic view of Mt. Mansfield has been cleared.

The easiest access is a small parking lot just off of Taber Hill Road, park just outside the gate at N 44° 27.837 W 072° 40.618. Alternatively, you can park along the street in Stowe Village and take a trail going from the end of Sunset Street and uphill past the actual "Sunset Rock". Please do not park on Sunset Street, as it is private residential parking, and you will probably be ticketed.

FTF prize is a $10 gift certificate for the Cold Hollow Cider Mill, which you will pass on Route 100 in Waterbury Center.
