This Geocache is one of several containers of various sizes hidden in the Town of Duck, NC. The Town of Duck does not allow public street parking which means a 4 hour walk or 50 minute bicycle ride along the 9 mile round trip is required to locate all 31.

Retrieval tool recommended but might not be needed for getting the log.

Parking coordinates are provided nearby which is close to the center of the cache series. Parking along any roads is prohibited and Town Police enforce the "No Parking" policy. There may be places to park near several cache locations along the route depending on the time of day and the total local population but none are guaranteed and permission to park there has not been granted. Please at all times be alert to nearby traffic as several caches are in a downtown business area and some are close to a very busy roadway. You should also be alert for Muggles at virtually all hours.

Please remember to close container lids and replace each in its secured position. Also, stealth is of the utmost importance here all year long and is especially essential during the summer tourist season. Keep in mind that if your search activities are observed by any Muggles (and there will be many at all hours of the day) this cache is certain to wander off.

The town of Duck built this boardwalk accessible from Town Park and other locations throughout the village extending extends 0.78 miles (1.26 km) along Currituck Sound. Total cost of the boardwalk was $1,127,797 ($979,243 in construction costs; $126,630 for the solar lighting; and $26,924 for signage, benches, trash cans and other amenities). It has a total of 3,386 linear feet (4,149 linear feet including the northern boat pier and other access points). The boardwalk is ten feet wide and is held up by approximately 752 pilings embedded a minimum of eight feet into the ground. There are approximately 12,547 pickets in the boardwalk railings, 247 lights and 5 solar stations to power the lights.

Please keep an eye on small children here. The water is not deep but there is a long drop off the boardwalk with no easy return. This is also the place where I dropped by GPSr and watched it bounce over the edge and into the water. Town staff helped me get it back.
