Geocache Description:

Frankfort, ME Frankfurt, Germany

Welcome to Frankfort, ME. Of course the spelling is not quite the same as the city in Germany, Frankfurt. With that said, Frankfort, Maine is the oldest town on the Penobscot River and at one time included the current towns of Prospect, Stockton Springs and Winterport. Frankfort's two highest points are Mt. Waldo and Mosquito Mountain. Mt. Waldo was so-named around 1815. Prior to that it had been called "Mt. Misery" because two young local men who had attempted to climb it had been overtaken by a blizzard and killed.

Frankfurt, Germany is the fifth largest city in Germany and the largest in the state of Hesse. Known as Frankfurt am Main, situated on the Main River, Frankfurt is the financial and transportation center of Germany and one of the largest financial centers in continental Europe.

A very straight-forward cache, it is BYOP

Congratulations to Mainiac1957 on the FTF!
