My first UVM hide.
A two-stage multi that celebrates recent history and the
favorite tree (anywhere, ever, she states) of Zebra Girl.
Neither long ago nor far away, students voted to fund a Senior
Class Gift that would be a prominent gateway into the University
campus. Originally proposed for a highly visible (and highly
controversial hilltop site, it was ultimately placed about 0.2
miles away, where it sees only snippets of automotive traffic, but
many pedestrians. To honor the Millenium class that placed it, we
begin here.
Nearby, the gift of UVM's 200th graduating class is plaqued. One
component of this gift is physical; if you have not seen it,
however, it's not likely you ever will, and almost as likely, your
children will not, either.
Finally, radioheads take note: In this vicinity is the original
(?) home of UVM's campus radio station, WRUV-AM (now at 90.1 FM).
AM? Yes. Way back when Card54 was a student, WRUV-AM had a modern
studio in that old white barn over there. A network of
carrier-current transmitters placed in the dorms and interconnected
by phone lines hummed (literally) everything from folk to beat to
pop to acid and psychedelia. Prominent local musician Robert Resnik
spun the disks (you know, VINYL). On a good day, the WRUV signal
would reach all the way across I-89 into South Burlington, some
said as far as Al's French Frys. 
Hope you enjoy the visit. Small UVM Catamobilia would keep this
cache happy.
Postscript:
UVM was central in my life for over 35 years. Whether that is of
interest to you geocachers out there is secondary to the trove of
knowledge, history, tradition, and culture wrapped up in the
institution on the hill. There are many storied sites both on and
off campus. We hope that some of you will share your own UVM
experiences, past and/or present, when you log your finds.
Enjoy the campus, and take the tour some time. It's worth
it!
