Interstate 70 is a long interstate highway in the United States.
The cache is an ammo can tucked away in a bush. that runs from
Interstate 15 about a mile from Cove Fort, Utah, to a Park and Ride
in Baltimore, Maryland.
The sign on this page (also in the cache) is located less than 1
mile from the junction of I-695 and I-70, on the west side of
Baltimore. When I was doing runs from Salt Lake to New Castle DE, I
would pass this sign and wonder, does anyone in Maryland know where
Cove Fort is? How many people in Utah know about Cove Fort?
Well, a little history about the sign. According to an article my
mom cut out for me, Maryland DOT was testing a new Font for signs
and placed this sign as a test. They picked 4 locations along I-70.
They did not include the states, as 3 are known by name alone.
The cache is placed at the last exit of I-70, before the junction
of I-15. I tried to place this cache about as far from the end of
I-70 as the sign is at the other end.
NOTE: 11/19 Cache is now a SMALL cache. Will replace with a larger
cache as time allows.

Replaced with a small container, until I can get another ammo can back down into this area. Dropped some bugs to get the new cache up.

Looked and looked but no find for us. Pretty sure this one is gone.

We stopped by this one and we looked all over in the bushes and couldn't find the ammo can. We don't know if we were looking in the wrong bushes, its just seems like the ammo can isn't there.
