Sent Walkin' On Water

This is a virtual cache. A cache that exists in a form of a location. A virtual cache is usually an interesting spot. The reward for discovering a virtual cache is the location itself, the information you gather there, and the awe of the surroundings.


Let's visit the geographic center of the Finger Lakes - Seneca Lake.


Seneca Lake was named for the Seneca Indian Nation, one of the six nations of the Iroquois Confederacy who used to inhabit the area. The word Seneca is derived from the Indian name assiniki, which means, "place of stone" or "stony place". Seneca Lake has the steepest shoreline of all the Finger Lakes, particularly at the southern end.

Excerpt from "Persons, Places and Things IN the Finger Lakes Region" by: Emerson Klees
