I Made the trip out to the Burnt-Rossman Hills State Forest to find a GeoCache. While there did do some light offroading too.

I was specificly going after GC5D23 Looking Glass Pond Cache (Traditional Cache) in New York, United States created by Valdana (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC5D23) Cache.

lol, well as said, some might want to go other not, figured it couldnt hurt to throw the invite out there to everyone just in case. I am going rain or shine. I dont want to hold on to the travel bug too long and need to get it to a new cache closer to its goal. Figured this one would be a good spot.

Here is a pic link. It was pretty up there so we will have to go back when we have more time since we found a couple of other trails.

This showed up as a road on the GPS... I didnt get a pic of the bottom where the "road" started. it went from a graded gravel to this.

I didnt get many as I was on a GeoCaching mission, and was more focused on that and where the Jeep was pointed
