Geocache Description:

Please note that this cache has been placed with permission of the National Parks because all the legs of the multi-cache before the final cache are VIRTUAL.

This five-leg multi-cache will bring you to beautiful places from Wellfleet to Provincetown.
You will drive to every leg of the cache, park and hike.

Bring a paper and a pen with you because you will need to gather information along the way to get from one leg of the cache to the next one.

ONLY the final cache features a container with a log book and trading items and is located on a private property. So don't feel weird about looking for the cache :)

When you drive to the first leg of the cache, you will need to find the coordinates of the second leg of the cache:
N 42° 00.ABC
