Another Roadside Attraction Geotrail

North Carolina - The Eiffel Tower

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.

North Carolina's Eiffel Tower was built as an advertising gimmick for the now defunct Bordeaux shopping center, the one-twelfth scale tower is 80 ft tall and was constructed in 1963.
