There is nothing better than a good road trip: driving down the open road, eating at tiny roadside diners, going 150 miles out of the way to take a selfie in front of … the Peachoid water tower! Oh Say, can you see … me with the world’s largest frying pan?
This geotrail honors those unique, odd, bizarre, fun, historic, campy, weird, and just downright interesting roadside attractions in North and South Carolina. The caches aren’t meant to be hard, it is a power-trail after all. None of the caches are hidden at the posted locations - but answer the question correctly and you will have a working set of coordinates. All of the hides are preform bottles.
The resilient South Carolina State House survived Sherman's march in the Civil War, however, bronze stars now cover six different spots where artillery shells blew holes in the structure. Construction began in 1851 but was not completed until 1907. Just in case you though that was all those Yankees did, the capitol is also home to a statue of George Washington that holds a broken cane. George was damaged by Sherman’s troops who threw bricks at the monument. The statue was preserved in its damaged state as proof of Yankee evil.
