8 May 2009 Deer Lick Nature Sanctuary








Gowanda is a pleasant Western New York town. I pass through it often on my way to Pennsylvania. It has streets for walking, an old movie theater, and a Tims (yum). Just outside of town is the Deer Lick Nature Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is listed as a Registered National Landmark. It has been in a Landmark since 1967. There are a handful of caches within the Sanctuary. There are two others in the area I wanted to search for as well, but notes on the cache pages seem to place the area of the caches on private property and now off-limits. It's a great place to walk and from the looks of it, you'll have the area to yourself most days. The stone at the bottom bears ee cummings' poem, I Carry Your Heart With Me. Based on the inscription, it was placed near the entrance to the park by someone on December 30, 2000.
