Tilton Island Virtual Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

nhblues: Island Bridge is being moved tomorrow, Aug 20, starting at 7pm!
Please help spread the word to avoid driving through that part of Main St at that time, in order to help assure everyone's safety during this activity.
The bridge will be removed in 4 parts and loaded onto 2 flatbed trucks. Each portion is being estimated to take 15 minutes to move.

Police presence will be on hand to help answer questions and direct traffic.
Thank you everyone for helping make this a success!

I will bring this back online when its safe to so after the renovation!

Geocache Description:

As you cross over the Winnipesaukee River on one of the few remaining wrought/cast iron bridges in the country (less than 100 left in the country, and possibly only remaining one in New Hampshire) you are greeted by a beautiful bridge over to a pretty island amid a gorgeous view of the river! Take a walk around the island to discover its secrets!

To prove you've enjoyed your tour of the island (or at least gone through the motions), email these three things (Don't post them here, even if encrypted):
  1) Name of the bandstand (a plaque is attached in their honor) This can be seen easily from the sidewalk, no need to try and get over the bridge!!
  2) Year associated with "J.W. Ladd To C.E. Tilton"  How many boards wide is the bridge? This can be seen from the sidewalk, DO NOT GO ONTO THE BRIDGE!!
  3) OPTIONAL- Take a picture with you and Timetable Mable...She is the big statue with the word TILTON on it real close by!!



Good luck!
You may log your find after you email me your answers. If they are incorrect - I will contact you and delete your entry.
