We invite you to take a ride
on the S&L Blue Line


Photobucket

Think back in time to when the steam locomotive was the best way to travel any distance,,, the clicking of the train on the rails as the countryside passes by, the sound of the whistle blowing as the train pulls into the station, the conductor walking through the passenger car calling out "next stop Looneyville",,,

The locomotives are gone now along with the rails, but the pathways that they used to travel are still there and have become today's trails.

We invite you to spend some time in the great outdoors, caching and exploring the path that the trains of yesterday used to travel.

This cache is part of a series of caches placed along the Hart-Montague Rail Trail.

You will need to collect information from the front of the log book in this cache and others in order to find
S&L Blue Line ( GC1CC3F).

The caches in this part of the series are:
GC1CJK4  YELLOW WATER 
GC1CJK5  MOSQUITOVILLE
GC1CJK6  FLEA TOWN 
GC1CJK7  YEEHAW JUNCTION 
GC1CJK8  SHACKTOWN 
GC1CJK9  BEAVER CROSSING 
GC1CJKA  LOONEYVILLE 

This series of caches is placed along The Hart-Montague Rail Trail, a beautiful paved walking/biking/skating/hiking trail that runs from Hart to Montague.

These caches are designed for those who enjoy cycling. You can however choose to hike the trail but take note, the trail is 22 miles long. I have included a link to a map that shows several parking places along the trail to help you choose the distance you wish to travel at one time if you wish to break it up in smaller parts.
 
As the Eagles first taught us, not all that long ago, life in the fast lane will surely make you lose you mind! Everyone today seems so obsessed with speed...faster has become synonymous with better. We want faster cars and faster computers, and heaven forbid we find ourselves in a dead-cell area! We've created this series of caches to help us all slow down just a little. We invite you to take a day off, leave the cell phones at home, and enjoy a day on the trail biking, caching, relaxing, and enjoying the benefits of being outside using your body and mind.

 
 
There are 3 series of caches, the
S&L Blue Line, ( GC1CC3F)
L&W Green Line ( GC1CBN9)
L&W-S&L Red Line( GC1CC3T)
Inside each of these caches you will find a card with information that will lead you to
L&W-S&L END OF THE LINE( GC1BV0H) .  
You will need all three cards to be able to do this final cache.
