Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Huskers Power Trail

The cache is not at the listed coordinates, to claim this smiley, you will need to qualify for the challenge and solve the puzzle below.

The challenge requires you to find 100 3.5 Terrain Caches. Please include a screen shot of your caches, or create a bookmark so I can verify your finds.

Husker Football – 2 of the top 10 football teams of all time are Nebraska Cornhusker Teams, the best team ever is the 1971 team, and the 3rd best team ever is the 1995 team. The Huskers are currently the 4th winningest football of all time. Bleacherreport.com rates Dr Tom Osborne the 3rd best college football coach in the history of college football, while Bob Devaney is 15th best. Husker football fans have been very lucky throughout the years, to have a team they can stand behind, I hope this lasts through my lifetime and yours!

The Storm - One of the reasons we choose the area was to bring awareness to what a tornado can do to a town. On May 22, 2004, a tornado touched down outside Hallam, Nebraska. It would soon become the world’s largest tornado, reaching its peak at 2.5 miles wide. The tornado destroyed the town of Hallam, tossing a freight train off the tracks west of town. It continued on just north of Cortland and 2 miles north of Firth. Norris Schools suffered severe damage, the middle school being the hit the worst. There the auditorium roof caved in and several walls also. Busses were tossed, and homes northeast of the schools were flattened to rubble.

Huskers Power Trail – The trail runs 13 miles wide, and 2 miles high, with approximately 185 caches. There will be some easy park and grabs, and some tough hides along the way. Due to the available hiding spots, quite a few puzzles had to be used to make the trail work.

When retrieving these hides, please pull all the way over, and do not do anything to harm yourself or others.

There are restaurants in Hallam, and Firth (just east of the trail), and gas can be found in Cortland (just south of the east side of the trail on HWY 77).
