No way anyone finds this one by accident... unless you are a geocacher going after a certain "micro in the woods" along the Erie Canal path.

However, if happen to look in the direction of the newest recreational lodge (north) constructed in the Greece Canal Park when you are exactly perpendicular to that building while walking along the canal path, you might notice something sticking out of the ground near a tree in that sightline. Easy enough to see November through March, but I wonder what's to see when things green up. You can see from the pictures that there are vines that could completely obscure it.
