Geocache Description:

Highway 11 goes from Gaffney, SC to Exit 1 on I-85 just above the South Carolina - Georgia border. (Or from Exit 1 to Gaffney if you look at it that way).

You are looking for a small pill bottle, camouflaged to blend in quite well with its surroundings. It is a little smaller than a 35mm film canister. You will only see the TOP of the container. It contains a log only, so BYOP (Bring Your Own Pen).

Highway 11 begins where E. Fredericks ends, 1.9 miles from I-85. If you are coming from I-85 take Exit 92,go from I-85 towards Gaffney (Right if coming North, Left if coming South on 85). You will see a Walgreens on the right, BEAR LEFT to follow Hwy 11.
0.5 miles past this point is where you will find the start of Hwy 11. (Note: this is NOT in addition to the 1.9 miles).

.....Watch for a sign that says: "Highway 11 ENDS"

.....Permission for placement of this cache has been obtained from Bill of Bill's Lok & Kee (hint, hint).

.....It is BETWEEN his building and the sign saying that Hwy 11 Ends. (hint, hint again). NOTE THE CACHE IS ACCESSIBLE FROM THE SIDEWALK - IT IS NOT INSIDE A BUILDING.

.....There is a geocaching logo sketched VERY near the cache. Use great stealth when hunting this cache. Be sure to replace it Securely in its spot.

I have added an additional hint since GPS reception can be impaired due to the buildings.
