The JOE cache series was started by altosaxplayer, a member of the Tri-Cities Geocachers. The name JOE means "Just Off Exit". The series was started as an Interstate 68 equivalent to the "Loop to Loop" and I-81 cache series that was started in Nashville TN by cgeek.

The JOE caches are placed no more than two tenths of a mile from the exit and the hint is a dead give away to the cache location. JOE caches are an easy way to pick up more cache finds while traveling.

When planning our trips we always struggle with which caches really will be quick grabs and which may end as disasters and getting lost in an unfamiliar city.

This cache is meant as a quick grab for those traveling through the area, a nice fast smiley for those that already live here and anyone following the Scenic 40 cache route.

Now for the cache Search …

You will locate this JOE just off the West Bound Exit 62 of I 68 on the North Side of the Interstate.

This Regular cache is located along Scenic 40 not far from the Westbound Exit and easily accessed from the East or West Bound sides.
It's a quick grab not far from the highway, and easy to get right back on afterwards. Parking is provided by a Large Pull Off along the Road. Stealth should be minimal but be aware that you will be visible from the passing Motorist

Cache stocked with a Stash Note, Log Sheet, SWAG and a Writing Utensil.

Lots of room to drop off Travelers with easy access to the Interstate.
PLEASE PLEASE – BE A RESPONSIBLE CACHER !!! IF YOU TAKE A TB OR COIN – LOG IT IN OR OUT AND MOVE IT ALONG QUICKLY . THEY BELONG TO SOMEONE AND HAVE SOME PERSONAL ATTACHMENT.

*** Congratulations to julietjoy for the FTF !! ***
