Geocache Description:

Small Lock N Lock with some small items, a logbook, and a pen. The above coords are fake, but they bring you to a real nice town!

We all know or at least assumed that Kansas is the center of the 48 states, but have you ever wondered where the center of New England is?

Sorry Wakefield, NH and Sanford, ME, you are NOT the center of New England as you claim to be.

New research has been done and an article has been written about it. You can find this article online. You will need to so you can get the information you need for this mystery. In the article, it states the coordinates for The Center of New England. The coords are in a different fashion than you may be used to using a gps, but these can be converted. Take these coordinates and do a projection of 85 feet at 21 degrees and you will have your coords for this cache container.

If, while standing at these coordinates that IS the Center of New England and looking North East, you will see this sign.


The cache is 8 feet directly left of this sign toward the top of the stone wall with a stone over the top of it.

Good luck with the hunt and happy caching!
