+Brooklyn51 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We're planning a trip to Long Island in a couple of weeks. Does anyone have any recommendations for interesting caches out around Centereach to Riverhead and parts east? Quote Link to comment
+buttaskotch Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 What kind of caches are looking looking to find? How long are you dedicating to GCing and what difficulty/terrain interested in? Quote Link to comment
+Brooklyn51 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 I think we'd be looking for caches in 1.5-2.5 range for both difficulty/terrain. We do plan to introduce a younger member of the family to the sport, so we're not looking for anything really hard. Small to regular sized caches would probably be ideal. As for time, we'll be out that way for 3-4 days. Quote Link to comment

+addisonbr Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I highly recommend Sight Unseen by wsack. It's great fun and not nearly as difficult as the rated difficulty. Lots of fun field puzzles to solve that your younger ones should really enjoy. The stages themselves are all ammo cans and not difficult to find. Quote Link to comment
+buttaskotch Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I have found a lot of great caches in the Riverhead area, and yes some were by Blackbuck (GCV5YW I like Stargazer) And the PR series, nice loop start here PT 1 The Diner GC21M5R decent terrain rating 1.5-2.5 easy caches And you will find awesome caches way out east by Montauk, Project Lookout GC8B84 has a gorgeous view and go in the State Park at the lighthouse, plenty of nice ones that aren't very strenuous and view to die for. And you'll see some seals if you are lucky Quote Link to comment
+buttaskotch Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Oh yeah, soak your clothes in Permethrin, the ticks are crazy out here! And chiggers are not much more fun. Gaiters and light colored clothing are highly recommended. No joke! Quote Link to comment
+Brooklyn51 Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 Thank you all for the recommendations. We're really looking forward to our time on the Island! Quote Link to comment
+RED 5 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) Thank you all for the recommendations. We're really looking forward to our time on the Island! Prosser Pines County Park is just one of the great places to go caching out here, but I highly recommend it if you're bringing the kids. Great place for a picnic lunch, too! Start with this cache and work your way around the park. You'll love it! Edited April 24, 2010 by RED 5 Quote Link to comment
