Geocache Description:

150 Geocaches have been hidden to guide your exploration of NC as you traverse highways and by-ways across the state as you learn from those fighting and those keeping the home fires burning during the Civil War, 1861 - 1865. 


Union Point Park was the triangular location from which New Bern was built upon.

Thirty caches are located in five different regions throughout NC. Completing a region will earn a collectible item that will represent the region. Instructions for sending the documentation are in the passport. Once all five regions are completed, you have earned a special NC Civil War trackable geocoin. Mail the passport to the address inside the passport – then your passport will be returned with your unique coin. All of the containers are the same - camouflaged 6 inch PVC tubes - the code word you need for your passport is inside the container on a laminated card and also taped on the container that holds the log sheet. Date your logbook and add your code word in the numbered area for the cache. As the containersmay become over tightened, carry a TOTT to ease the opening process.Passports will be available at the event, some Civil War Museums in NC, and via mail if you send me you address or you can download your passport here.

Cache location: N 35 05.ABC   W 077 02.272
