Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

If you're going to do the Capitol View or Honest Man virtual caches, you CAN'T miss this memorial!
This memorial is VERY large. The location I've given is our favorite spot within it. Check it out and see why. Check out the pictures. God Bless - The Jorgensen Four

NOTE from mtn-man: I have adopted this cache since the cache owner has left the site. I have added verification questions.

1. From this spot, looking toward the Washington Monument, how many roughly one to one and a half foot square blocks do you see at the top of the steps?

2. Go around the corner to N38° 52.974' W77° 02.550'. Look at the large statue and tell me what it says next to the copyright symbol. If you cannot find it, I have added a hint below.

This is a tremendous place. I also hope you enjoy this area as much as I have. Thanks to the Jorgensen Four for bringing me here. Have fun! The photo below shows the cherry blossoms while in full bloom!

Thanks for cache, Mtn-Man!! Sent answers via e-mail. Making this visit made me take my time and look around and enjoy the scenery, even though in a rush to get back for meeting.
