ROUTE 66 - "World’s Largest Chest of Drawers" Traditional Geocache

High Point, North Carolina is known as the “Home Furnishing Capital of the World.” So it’s only appropriate to celebrate the title with a giant dresser. Originally built in the 1920s, the World’s Largest Chest of Drawers was 20 feet tall. When renovated in 1996 it was expanded to 38 feet. Two giant mismatched socks that fall from one of the drawers pay homage to the city’s hosiery industry and give it an extra push of roadside charm

**Cache at your own risk**

Geocaching, hiking, backpacking and other outdoor activities involve risk to both persons and property. There are many variables including, but not limited to, weather, fitness level, terrain features and outdoor experience, that must be considered prior to seeking a cache. Be prepared for your journey and be sure to check the current weather and conditions before heading outdoors. Always exercise common sense and caution.
