Geocache Description:

The JOE cache series was started by alto saxplayer, a member of the Tri-Cities Geocachers. The name JOE means "Just Off Exit".

 

This series was started as an Interstate 79 equivalent to the I-68 JOE's, 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.

This is the fifth of my West Virginia I-79 series.

When planning trips some 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 and a nice fast smiley for those that already live here. Copied from VWDave's caches in VA, scrubjsm in WW and LisaandDarin in MD.


 

......Now for the cache search.......


Locating this JOE will best be accessed from the southbound exit along the west side of the interstate but is an easy on and off from either direction for traveling cachers.


The micro cache you seek is hidden for easy access. No room for a writing utensil so BYOP!!

There will be one container with four possible spots for the cache.  This is something I made up while browsing an isle at the local hardware store.

Stealth will depend on the day and time of your hunt. This cache is located outside of a very popular diner.  It is best to use your CRV to keep the cache from the hungry eyes.

 

CAUTION: Potential for traffic to be passing by in the parking lot, so if caching with children know there whereabouts at all times.

Note to the FTF: GW is awaiting you so if you find the log first....keep looking!!

***Congrats to WVgrrl for the FTF!
