Caching in the Berkshires


You want me to go up where? We did a couple of caches out here on this road in the Berkshires. The first one was "One for the Boys" and it was easily found right along the side of the road. Our boys were enchanted with the idea of climbing up this big hill from the moment they set eyes on it.

I was a little less excited about that idea.


We parked the trusty Subaru at the bottom and started to check the GPS. Only 300 feet from the car! We're close. The GPS wanted us to go a little right of the easy trail and a little left of the big hill. Which way to go. While I'm deciding the kids have already moved on. And UP!
John held my hand while we ascended this hill. My sandals were not the right choice for today! But what a view from the top! Maybe even worth it.
At the cache we found the typical fare of items, signed the log and headed back down the "easy" trail. The cache was named "Jeepin' cache" and it is obvious why!
Great fun.
