Geocaching
Cub scout dens five and eight have hidden geocaches within Merrimac. You can learn about their caches at: www.geocaching.com. On the Geocaching website a free account is required to view logged cache coordinates. Once registered, search for all caches within the 01860 zip code.
Join in the fun and go on a hike to look for hidden caches or make a cache with your own den. Pick up a trail map and explore Merrimac’s open spaces. Here are a couple of recent hides to get you started. The waypoint conversions are included.
