This is the final cache in my series of caches placed in Maine towns with presidential names. This cache is near the virtual cache “Presidential Sign” GCGW9V and is not far from a spectacular view of the “Presidential Range” mountains in New Hampshire.
To find this cache you will need to use the information from each of the Presidential cache listings I have placed and mileages from the Presidential sign.
This can be done without finding any of the Presidential Town caches.
The first Cacher to find this cache gets a George Washington Bill. The first cacher to complete THE PRESIDENTIAL CHALLENGE and find all the different Presidential Town caches and this final cache; will receive from me, by mail or in person, a George Washington bill, an Abraham Lincoln bill and an Andrew Jackson bill.(For all you people from East Overshoe, that's $26) Just send me a list with each cache and the dates found.
