When traveling north on Rte 16:
Upon reaching the intersection of Rte 16 and Rte. 109, take a left heading west. Follow Rte 109 for a bit more than a mile. When you reach THE SHARP CORNER, you will see a white house on your right , a stone wall almost straight ahead and a fence on your left, TURN LEFT by the fence ON TO GOVERNOR RD.
Follow Governors Rd. until you reach a road on the right at which you see a small triangular patch of garden that nestles between the roads (approximately a mile down on Governors Rd). Take that RIGHT. YOU ARE ON MOOSE MTN. RD. Follow Moose Mtn. Rd. past the Justice of the Peace on the right. PASS Tumbledown Dick Rd on your right and Moose Mtn. Recreation a bit further on your left. You will come to an old red house(# 154 ) on your right . This is the last house on Moose Mtn Rd., BUT CONTINUE on your journey straight ahead. The paved road turns to a dirt road. Be warned! The dirt road is not graded and has become deeply rutted in spots. Proceed slowly. PARK in the small lot where you see the Ellis R. Hatch Wildlife Management Area sign. You must continue your journey by foot from here ( about 7/10 of a mile)
Facing the Ellis R. Hatch sign, follow road to the left, going under,over,or around gate. Enjoy the coolness,and serenity as you pass over the stream. Continue straight up the steep incline - upward and onward.
You are getting close when you see the pond and the dam on your right. Continue PAST the wide path to the dam , BUT at THAT small intersection begin counting about 65 yards further along; the pond at your right.
Go off the trail at 65 yards and into the wooded area. You should see some broken parts of an old foundation in front of you. Walk in about 14 yards. You should be just about at the old foundation pieces. There will be a pine tree flanked by the old concrete. Just in front of a cluster of bricks you will see some rocks piled together. Hurray. Your prize is hidden beneath the rocks.

IF traveling South along Rte.16, take a RIGHT at the intersection of Rte 16 and Rte 109. Then follow above directions from the turn
