Geocache Description:




THE CACHE

This cache is located where four counties meet in one place. Technically, the cache is in Pierce county, but it's about 10 feet (if even) from where the counties meet. You're looking for a 30 Cal. Ammo Can.

I've included a personal signature item and ready-to-go film canister for FTF. Please only take the signature item if you don't already have one.

THE COUNTIES

Grandview Drive is a north-south road (that is closed), and is the border for Madison and Stanton counties. Madison county is to the west and Stanton county is to the east. If Grandview Drive continued north past the "←→  " sign, it would be 558th Avenue. That is Pierce and Wayne counties' border. Pierce county is west and Wayne is east.

Kaneb Road and 846th Road are the same road and run east-west. West of Grandview Dr./558th Ave., it is the border for Madison and Pierce counties. Madison is south and Pierce is north. East of Grandview/558th, Kaneb Rd./846th Rd. is the border for Wayne and Stanton counties. Wayne county is north and Stanton is south.

I'm sure the center of each road are the county lines, but my mapping program says the lines are on the south edge of Kaneb and on the west edge of Grandview. Of course, though, the map images are from 2006...talk about up-to-date!

HOW TO GET THERE/THE ROADS

Don't come from directly 1 mile south...that's Grandview Drive. As mentioned earlier, that road is closed. There is no road from the north, so you can't come directly from the north. You'll have to zig-zag however you want so that when you're a mile out you're coming from the east and/or west. I came from west.

The roads to get there are paved, but eventually turn to gravel. The gravel I rode on was very well maintained. I only had 3 cars pass me on Kaneb Rd., so it's not very busy by the cache...but you'd better make sure to park to the side for just in case.

 

Have fun! #|:•D
