I didn't find out the coordinated until I was already at work, so I had to make due with what I had with me. I didn't have a camera or separate GPS, so I had to use my phone as a camera and GPS unit (using a bluetooth GPS radio). I put on my emergency rain pants and waterproof boots from my car and headed out. The easiest access to the cache was through a backyard that was nicely mowed all the way to the river. However, not wanting to tresspass, I bushwacked my way down to the banks of the Souhegan.
