Geocache Description:

Nano cache in a downtown urban setting.


Huntington Ingalls - Newport News Shipbuilding and the City of Newport News have collaborated on a walking trail in downtown Newport News to enable employees and the public to have a route for outdoor exercise. The trail takes the walkers through downtown Newport News to the Victory Arch and around the Virginia Advanced Shipbuilding and Carrier Integration Center (VASCIC).  As I walked past these signposts, I felt this was screaming for a cache series in this sparsely cache populated area.  Due to geocache personal space envelope limitations, not every 0.1 mile spaced sign will have an associated container, but I did what I could.

Based on personal observations on parking availability and muggle density in this downtown area, I recommend that the best time to find these caches is after 5 pm (M-F) or on weekends. To help in finding a good parking place during weekday searches, I have provided coordinates to a convenient parking spot for a small hourly fee, and this series should take less than an hour to complete.

Enjoy the walk and the series.
