Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the Maine R.O.S.E. Series and is meant to be really obvious, simple and easy. It's perfect for cachers who want a quick find, or who are not up for a physical challenge. The purpose of this series is to promote caching to everyone, and create a fun family cache experience. Some fellow cachers get discouraged by vague descriptions and caches that appear to be difficult hides. Our attempt here is to make the cacher aware of the entire situation before they attempt the cache. If you have any comments that should be added, please let us know.


Directions: This cache is located at the public boat launch off Route 1A in Frankfort.

Parking: There is space for quite a few cars right at the launch. Stealth is required if the area is populated with muggles.

Difficulty: This cache has been rated 2.0 for difficulty because the cache is not in plain sight. You will need to remove the cache from a modified natural item in a stand of trees to one side of the parking lot.

Terrain: This cache has been rated 2.0 for terrain because there is no trail. The area contains sharp granite rocks and tall brush. You will need to be very careful where you step because the rocks may shift.

Distance: The distance from the parking area to the cache is roughly 175-200 feet, depending on where you choose to park.

Cache Container: The container is a medium sized rectangular Lock N' Lock type container. This cache is a letterbox hybrid. Cachers may wish to stamp the logbook with their personal stamp, and take an impression from the cache stamp for their personal logbook. The stamp, the logbook and the inkpad need to remain in the cache for the next finder.

More Information: This series has been developed in collaboration with Hollora and Becket. We have each committed to hiding a dozen rose caches in our area. The release of these roses will be sporatic in hopes to have three dozen live by Valentine's Day 2007.

Special Information:: This cache was approved by GPSFUN at 12:03 on 01/01/07 making it the first cache in Maine for 2007!
