This cache has been archived.

McDyver: Made the trip out for maint. today and found the final hiding spot no longer viable, flipping thru the logbook there had been a couple folks that found it by accident so I've decided to archive in favor of a new cache at a later date... stay tuned

Geocache Description:

A three part multi along rails and trails

This multi starts you off on a railbed by the old Sterling Cider Mill building and passes over two makeshift bridges along the way, you'll leave the railbed and venture down an atv trail eventually coming to an area that would be a great picnic area.
No bushwhacking is needed as all locations are within 1 -30 feet of the trail.

The name Scrabble cache comes from the idea that coordinates are listed on Scrabble like tiles.
Forming the word indicated by the clue in each micro will give the N and W coords to the next location. All words can be found on this page.

Look at the picture to derive the best parking spot for this multi and to get a feel for the Scrabble cache micro contents.

Double word score: 01/10/04
We've shortened this to a three part cache due to some tree cutting plans around the bonus box area.
We'll be placing the bonus box again once spring has sprung.

I've set the overall difficulty to 3 for a three mile round trip hike including the bonus cache and reduced GPS reception thru the area. If you choose not to do the bonus cache overall difficulty is probably a 2.

When hiding this our team mascot, the Blue Eyed Black Panther(McDyver's BEBP TB) left hints at all locations.
