This is the first in our series of four caches highlighting some
of our favorite bridges. The other caches are:
We developed this series as a family to complete a requirement
for the Boy Scouts' Family Life merit badge. Most of the planning
and leg work was done by my son who was twelve at the time.
Each of the first three caches has a clue written at the top of
the first page of the log. The clue is one of the digits in the
coordinates for the final cache. You need to find the first three
caches in the series and write down the clue before you can find
the final cache.
This bridge is neither the highest, nor the longest, nor the
strongest, nor the most traveled bridge in Wake County. However, it
has been the site of a lot of fun events for our family. You may
not need to cross the bridge depending on where you park, but take
a moment to enjoy the scenery. The ranger advises us that he sees a
lot of copperheads in this part of the park, so be careful! Cache
is a standard bison tube with a log. BYOP.
Since this cache is in a county park, make sure you only visit
during the hours the park is open.
