Valley View: I-81 North Mile 232 Rest Stop Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Elliotts4: I learned today that as of 7/8/2012, VDOT is extending the prohibition of geocaches to all Virginia rest areas as well as other VDOT maintained property. Placing, seeking, finding or monitoring a cache on VDOT-controlled property will be considered a crime, a violation of Title 24 of the Virginia Administrative Code, a Class IV Misdemeanor. So to protect us all from arrest (sigh), this one will not be replaced.

Geocache Description:

The state of Virginia is reopening all the rest areas closed in summer 2009. Once again you can satisfy your urge for bladder relief and your urge for a snack at the I-81 North MM 232 rest stop. And now you can again satisfy your urge for caching as well!

While this cache is located toward the north end of the rest stop, the easiest (and least suspicious) access is from the SOUTH end. Walk up the hill at the back of the rest stop and enjoy the lovely pastoral view as you take a 0.14 mile stroll to the cache site.

The cache is a smallish Lock & Lock container with a few trading items to get started. You do not need to bushwhack to access it. The cache has been muggled three times, so PLEASE re-cover this one with pine needles, pine cones, and sticks. There is plenty of material in the area to work with.

While the cache site is removed from most of the rest stop activity, please be cautious to avoid muggle detection! Have fun!

**** Congratulations kvnswtnova for the FTF! ****
