Geocache Description:

Another Roadside Attraction Geotrail

 

North Carolina - Metalmorphosis Sculpture Fountain

 

 


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.

 

Czech artist David Černý has made some pretty bizarre works in the past, from a tank painted pink to a clan of futuristic babies climbing up Prague’s TV Tower. But for some reason people just can’t get over his North Carolina piece ‘Metalmorphosis.’ The mammoth head weighs 14 tons. The 31 ft tall fountain structure with horizontally moving stainless steel plates rotate to form and reform a giant metal head.
