64 Miles to Bahhston Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

BareFeat: A sad day as we archive this cache. Not everyone can be trusted (or be bothered) to read a cache page.
Recently the sign at this location was bent (during the summer) and after showing up and having the entire area
look as though savages tore it apart we decided it was the last time. If your one of the dopes that tore through
this area, feel proud. The cache is no more.

You Do NOT need to move anything to find this cache! This cache is a small tupperware container 2.75x2.75x3.5 inches.
It contains only a logbook, and a couple small items we threw in. BYOP!! Maybe room for geocoins, but travel bugs will be a tight fit. It is hidden very well. And we ask you to make sure you rehide it very well, so others can enjoy the task. The cache is located on East Main St. in Brookfield, Ma. once the "Boston Post Road" from New York to Boston. Below is an exerpt explaining the markers. This is just a "random" backroad cache, we are experimenting with our hides, let us know what you think. Seems to be a tough hide for some. :)
There are now 3 caches on this road, so make sure to check the bookmarks.

In 1763, while deputy postmaster, Benjiman Franklin was assigned the task of placing a marker at one mile intervals along the Boston Post Road. The Boston Post Road was established as a permanent highway in 1639. It ran from Boston to New York City, at the time a distance of two hundred fifty four miles.
