Welcome to the USA Geoart! The caches are obviously not at the posted coordinates, but they are all located along Route 3 in NH and Route 102 in Vermont. They are all relatively simple finds because I want everyone to be able to find these caches, regardless of age or physical ability. But to find these caches, you must solve the following questions about each state’s symbols. The website I used to gather the information was https://statesymbolsusa.org, so please use the same website to avoid any discrepancies.
In each cache, there is a special little surprise for the FTF if they want it, a little homemade magnet of each state. Will you be the first to collect all fifty?
I also need to give a huge shout out to my Mom, Mummie91957, for helping me immensely with this geoart series. Without her, this geoart would’ve taken much longer to plan out.
North Dakota joined the union on November 2, 1889. It became a U.S. territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase of 1803.The area was originally part of the Minnesota and Nebraska territories, until with South Dakota, it became a part of the Dakota Territory in 1861. The state was very sparsely populated until the arrival of the railroads in the late 1800’s.
