GC20XN5 the one less traveled (Traditional Cache) in Massachusetts, United States created by EagleScout1968

This cache has been archived.

EagleScout1968: The guard rail was removed by the Bedford Public Works Department. The guard rail had been damaged a couple of years ago during a the winter months. One end, not containing the geocache, of the guard rail had been hit and raised up 4 or 5 feet.

I will watch this area and possibly place another similar cache. I will wait to see if they replace the guard rail. If not, maybe I'll find another location for a cache.

I like this location because it is along a popular route and probably most people do not even know that this little road exists.

Keep on caching! Keep on hiding! Continue your adventure!

Geocache Description:

This should be a quick park and grab along the less traveled of the two roads with the same name.

*** Beware of the poison ivy ***

There are two roads in this area that have the same name. The cache is along the less traveled of these roads.

Robert Frost's poem that describes finding a place in the woods where the path splits and about his choice to take "the one less traveled by". Selecting the less traveled road will get you to this particular cache.

Robert Frost (1874–1963)

The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
