Placed April 1, 2000
Cardinals Rule
York River Park. Located near Williamsburg, Virginia. From Interstate 64 take the Croaker exit #231B. Go north on State Route 607 (Croaker Road) for one mile. Take State Route 606 (Riverview Road) for 1.5 miles to park entrance.
Once you are in the park visit the Nature Center and get a map to the Taskinas Creek Trail. Go the third overlook, Coire Maranzano Troup 135 Eagle Scout Project. Look out onto the Taskinas Creek and look for Osprey that are common to the area. Do an about-face and standing on the edge of the platform, look past the right side of the closest Pine and note a large double Beech tree (I think) up the hill at a bearing of 255°. Go up the hill on the left side of the Pine and you should find your reward on the back side of the double tree. Continue on the trail back to the Park Headquarters. Replaced 4 May, 2001 by the Jolly G-Man for Squirrel.

From the Visitor's Center take the path to the Woodstock Pond Trail. At the trails sign post, turn left onto the Mattaponi Trail. Over the River and through the woods describes this section of York River State Park. Leaving Woodstock Pond Trail, the Mattaponi Trail winds away from the shore and into the woods. Crossing a River creek on a wooden foot bridge (check out the turtles and dragonflies), continue on the trail past another letterbox onto where a trail to the beach intersects this trail. Go 15 steps to the right to a big sister tree. Look between the two sisters.
Be sure to go down to the beach to look for fossils. They are the real treasure
