This is a nice enjoyable walk any time of the year suitable for kids and adults alike. Start you quest on the York County Heritage Rail Trail in the John Rudy County Park (http://ycwebserver.york-county.org/Parks/RailTrail.htm).
I-83 to Exit 21A, take US-30 East to Sherman Street. Make a left turn and then up & over the hill you go. At the bottom of the hill, turn right at the light. Continue a short distance and you will soon make a left on to Rt. 24 (North Sherman Street). After passing the Water Treatment Plant on the right, you will continue on until you see a big red barn on your left. Here you will make a left on to Mundis Race Road. Follow this road for approximately .3 miles. Enter John Rudy County Park on your right.

After turning right into the Park, continue driving straight ahead to the Main Parking Lot. You will pass a smaller parking lot and the restrooms on your left.
After you have parked, look South and you will see the entrance to the York County Heritage Rail Trail. Take the path which will take you parallel to the road you just drove on to get to this parking lot. Cross over Mundis Race Road and follow the trail. The first thing you pass will be the York County Parks Administration Building on your right. As you continue down the path, if you are walking on a week day, you may hear the noises of large machinery ahead. Look to your right and you will see a big stone quarry. I wonder how deep it might be. A short distance ahead the path takes a sharp turn to the left and a little bit farther, a sharp right puts you along the creek. You pass over a bridge and then you’ll soon pass a small platform with some electrical controls on your right. Shortly you will come to 2 benches facing the creek. Rest if you must but your quest is near. Stand behind the first bench (facing away from the creek) and walk across the macadam walkway. Turn right and take approximately 7 steps along the walkway. Turn toward trees and take approximately 10 steps into the tree line. You will come to a tree where you will find a SPOR behind it. Check it out.

Please use the bags provided for the log, stamp, and box before returning Miss Meow to her cosy spot and hide her well! She has been mistreated by some and has used up several of her lives already.
