Geocache Description:


This cache is part of the NH State Geoart Series. The coordinates are fake; you must solve the puzzle below to obtain the final coordinates. The caches are placed along the 14.8 mile, dirt Bog Dam Road (also known as the Kilkenny Loop Road) in Berlin, NH. The dirt road is is in great shape, but the road is gated from the end of November to the beginning of May. Check the WMNF website for road closure.

 

Note that all the caches are winter friendly and within 20' of the road – easy P&Gs.

Mt. Jackson is my 14th favorite NH 4000' mountain. Jackson is 4,052 ft (1,235 m) above sea level and is named after Charles Thomas Jackson, New Hampshire's state geologist in the 19th century and a very controversial figure at the time. Mt. Jackson has 360 degree views and is one of the easier peaks on the Presidential Range.

The Puzzle: 44 31.0A1  71 17.183

Jackson is 4,0A2' high.
