Geocache Description:

The MoCo Expo Geotrail is a way to help introduce people to geocaching in Morgan County, WV in a fun and family-friendly way. All of the caches in this small trail are kid-friendly!


This is a small 12-cache trail - thought currently 1 (Things are Looking Up) has been disabled due to vandalism. It will be replaced soon with a better, more secure cache.

This is our very first effort, so be kind in your reviews.The county seat is Berkeley Springs, which boasts a warm spring that maintains a year-round temperature of 74 degrees. The "run," as residents call it, is a great place to bring your family for a refreshing (free!) soak, or to just dangle your feet and relax. While you're there, you can get a selfie in front of "George Washington's Bathtub!"

Most of the caches in this trail are 1/1's to 2/2's. A few have been adjusted upwards due to Terrain (but still easy to find!) The idea is to make it easy for brand new geocachers to find at least most of them.) There are 12 caches titled "MoCoExpo Trail."

Now, for the cache

We've acknowledge our feline friends in this series, so it's only fair to give the canine's a nod.  This cache can be found very near an establishment that may prove beneficial in providing you a little energy boost for your travels.  An interesting factoid about said establishment - it used to be home to the local podiatrist, who has since hotfooted it to a much bigger location.  Now, this tiny little location is named in memory of the four-footed critter who devoted his life to the running of the establishment.  

The cache is located in a place that you may not expect to find it, near someplace that you might.   This is the ONE and ONLY Difficulty 3 cache in this series because of the level of Muggle activity. Be forwarned, there is a VERY high chance of muggle activity from vehicles going by, walkers, people peeping out of nearby residences, and from the tennis and basketball courts nearby, so be especially stealthy!  It might be best to have a finder and a lookout when looking for this one.  Though this IS a kid-friendly location, it is near a VERY busy street. Please be kind and return the cache to EXACTLY where you found it, and let the CO know if there are any problems with the hiding spot.  

*******CONGRATULATIONS TO The r.e.s.t.seekers ON GETTING THE FTF!************
