100 Flagler Facts Numbers Run. 100 easy to get to, easy to find caches.
This numbers run has been created by Delaine S and the “Old Man of Geocaching”, POJ of POJ & MMJ, as our way of thanking all who have come before us who have made our caching trips fruitful and prolific.
This numbers run is all about Flagler County. The sequentially numbered caches are all on the same side of the road. Seeking the caches in ascending numerical order will ensure that all the caches are on the right side of the road. There are no sidewalks or bike paths along this run. Park off of the road and use caution re-entering the roadway. These caches are all in camouflaged preforms, most of them hanging by green coated wire. There are no baggies or anything else in these caches except the log. Bring your own writing instrument. Please be careful to correctly align the cap on the preform after signing the log, and snug it to the preform to ensure the log will stay dry.
Please put each cache back just the way you found it.
Flagler Fact # 33
In 1886, Henry Mason Cutting, a wealthy New England sportsman purchased the property known as "Cherokee Grove". Cutting also bought several adjoining parcels, including a point where he decided to build a lodge. Cutting's New York architect gave the lodge a romantic European look-a cross-shaped great room of dark wood rising to a 24-foot peak, massive fireplace, a false gallery around the second-story level. The woodwork was carved by a father-and-son team who had worked on Flagler's Ponce de Leon Hotel in St. Augustine, now Flagler College. Yet the architect also made the place Floridian with wide porches shaded by a deep overhang, and the lodge walls are blocks molded of concrete and native coquina. The lodge was completed in 1888, the same year he married Angela Mills. He died in 1892 leaving his estate to his 26 year-old wife and two infant children. (she married a John Lorimer Worden after Cuttings death but they were divorced before 1922) Angela Mills Cutting was soon a widow after the passing of Henry Cutting and she eventually married an exiled Russian prince named Boris Scherbatoff. Cherokee Grove was renamed Princess Place and the 1,500 pristine acres attract nature enthusiasts from near and far. In the 20th century, Flagler County Parks and Recreation designated the 1,500 acres a preserve. Visitors can take in the environment on one of the many hiking, biking and equestrian trails, spend time fishing in the salt marshes along the Matanzas River and Pellicer Creek, or camp out under the stars. The Preserve was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
