Geocache Description:

A quick cache placed at the entrance to private property.

Background
Every year our scout troop takes a trip up to Maine in June to stay at a farm owned by the grandfather of one of the scouts in the troop. This year we were sitting around the campfire talking about the next day's planned activities. The subject of geocaching came up and the farm owner's grandson started to explain it to his grandfather. The grandfather stopped him and told him about when he had gone and found First Mass (GC74) with some friends. He then told us about a few others they found. Best as I can figure it was back in 2001. Then the grandfather said lets hide one.

Next morning we looked around the property. After considering several spots we settled on a spot close to the road so cachers wouldn't need to worry about going onto private property. I fetched two cache containers out of my car. (One for placement and one for back up.) We took a bunch of reads over next two days.

The Cache
We chose a spot right along the road. There is a little grassy area that you can pull over and park. The cache is within 30 feet of the parking area so you do not have to wander far. If you see an older gentleman in a small silver truck, say hi to Jack for me.

Good luck and good caching,

Loch Cache, Jack and troop 519




Congrats to Macfriends on the FTF
