Geocache Description:

It is important to read the complete description at "CR 16 #01" GC2XTM9 before venturing out on the JustinPike Power Trail. That is where I will post any important information that you may need. Failure to read, may result in failure to find.

**************************************************************************************

ABSOLUTELY NONE OF THESE CACHES ARE ON PRIVATE PROPERTY! DO NOT CROSS FENCES, GO ONTO PRIVATE PROPERTY OR AROUND BUILDINGS, BARNS, OR HOUSES!
ALL CACHES ARE ON THE RIGHT OF WAY WITHIN EASY REACH AND ARE NEAR A SIGN, POLE OR TREE UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE IN THE HINT!
PLEASE DO NOT TRESPASS!
IT IS LEGAL TO SHOOT A TRESPASSER IN ALABAMA!
**************************************************************************************

This is Randolph County Road 16. It is my first power trail and being that I am now 16 when I am placing this trail, it is the perfect road number to do it on. These caches are not meant to be hard. They are for the most part Park and Grab. There is no view meant to be seen along this route. There are some interesting things, but that is not the reason for the caches. If someone finds a reason to place a cache and it is too close to my trail caches. I will be happy to work with you on moving or deleting a cache so that you may hide your cache.

**************************************************************************************

First, let's go over a few ground rules:

1. Always pull ALL THE WAY off the road at a safe pull off point. There is one either at, before or after the cache on the same or opposite side of the road. Some will require you to walk a little ways, but it is best to be safe.
2. Always look for traffic before opening your door and getting out, when crossing the road, returning to your car or pulling out onto the road.
3. Please be aware of muggles. Some caches may be placed in view of a residence in the distance. Do not TRESPASS! None of the caches are on private property! If someone is out side or sitting on the porch, pass the cache up. Suspicious activity may result in the archiving of some caches. If you carry a caching stick and a plastic bag for trash, you can easily disappear from the minds of any muggles by appearing to be picking up cans or trash. :) Just a thought!
4. I do not recommend this for children. These caches are all 35 mm film canisters or similar. Absolutely NONE of these are on PRIVATE PROPERTY! DO NOT TRESPASS! There are a few exceptions, that are pico tubes, but not many. Bring your own pen.
5. I nor anyone else involved in caching is responsible for any accidents. You cache at your own risk, whether it be on foot, bicycle, motorcycle, helicopter, horseback, dog chain, airplane or automobile. If you are not an adult and are not able to be responsible for your own actions and any accidents, DON'T DO THESE CACHES!
6. Wear safety vests or very bright reflective colors, so that you are seen.
7. Turn on your hazard lights and pull all the way off the road at a safe spot before stopping.
8. There may be poison ivy, ticks, thorns, chiggers, spiders, ants, dogs, drunk drivers, snakes and other biting critters or plants that hurt. Difficulty may change with time of year. CARRY A FIRST AID KIT that includes at minimum: Bug Repellent, Plasters, Band Aids, Gloves, Sting Reliever (Sting Rid), Hydrocortisone Cream, Sun Tan Oil, Mace (for dogs) (we petted all but the Pit Bull at #66), Alcohol, Wasp Spray, safety buddy and plenty of water.
9. Traffic is busy in early morning or evening during traffic times 6-9 AM and 4-6 PM.
10. These containers are not completely weather proof but due to my teenage finances, I cannot afford a lot. I have placed a log sheet inside a plastic bag and then in the container. There is NO PEN OR PENCIL. I cannot afford to keep replacing baggies, if people keep ripping them and throwing them on the ground. I will have no choice but to archive this entire trail. Please help me to help all geocachers have a fun experience by not damaging these caches. I really want this to be around a very very long time. I need your help.
Please replace as found and have fun!

COORDINATES NOTICE: Should coordinates show off a few feet, remember that GPSr accuracy is not 100%, you should be within 15 feet depending on your GPSr brand and quality at all times. However, the hint should make it locatable by simple sight, should weather or distance to next cache be in question. Read hint to find out where to look if in view of a home.

HOTELS: While there are several, I can only recommend the Key West Inn. Of course if all you want is a $20 room, head on down to the Budget Inn.

RESTAURANTS: We have plenty of choices of food, I will list the best and then the others:

TJ Rockers (good food at a good price, meat and vegatables, good steak)
La Herradura (great mexican food open lunch 11-2 and dinner 5-9 only)
Hong Kong King Buffet (Chinese buffet, DON'T go to the other one)
Pizza Hut
Jack's Hamburgers (best breakfast bisquits and food, closes at 9pm)
Big Chic (for the best fried chicken in town, hidden behind main street on Knight Avenue)
The Grapevine (This one is a drive off the course up to Woodland, but worth the drive. It is a Greek and Pizza restaurant. The Chicken Slovakia is the best, tell Alex hi)
Sunny's Home Cooking (Ok, this is a meat and vegatable buffet, but it is run by chinese and the cooks are mexican and they claim they are cooking "Southern Food" It is and a lot of people drive from all around to eat here. It is very crowded at 12 and 6 worse on Sunday. It's good and cost just under $10. Better food for 6.95 at TJ Rockers)

We also have McDonald's, Burger King, Gedney's, Jon Boys (BBQ) and Huddle House (they smoke in there).

IF I LEFT OUT ANYTHING DROP ME A NOTE.
