This cache has been archived.

TeamHarrison: After a wonderful, 13-year run with lots of finds and wonderful logs, it is time to say goodbye. I’m moving out of the area and was unable to find anyone to adopt this one so it is farewell for this one. Thanks for the fun!

Geocache Description:


Jackson Was Here!

     While driving around Bainbridge finding some of the wonderful caches hidden by our good friend, GeoBain, we came across a large boulder with a historical marker on it.  While the marker is unreadable from the nearby road, ample locations to park allow for closer inspection.

     The cache is located somewhat near this marker identifying the trail used by Andrew Jackson and his troops on their way to Fort Hughes (now Bainbridge) to fight in the first Seminole Indian War in 1818.  Take a moment to enjoy this unique location and its historical relevance.

     Please re-hide the cache exactly as you found it to ensure its security and longevity.

     A big thanks for this January 6, 2018 note from Omnipotent1701, indicating where the plaque has ended up!... "After some touring of Bainbridge, I found the Jackson plaque at Chason Park, it has been cleaned up and is readable. It must have been relocated when the US 27 interchange was built."
