Geocache Description:


48 State Cache Dash Introduction (GC79X8F)

This series of caches is intended to be a simulation of my 48 state trip, but on a much smaller scale, more or less making a counter-clockwise circuit of Dane county. If done in one trip, it will take several hours, depending on how long each stop is, and will cover somewhere in the neighborhood of 160 miles.

A few notes…

-Look for the state stickers on the beacons.
-They are all park and grabs.
-Most are winter friendly, some are not.
-Almost all caches are on road signs, a few guard rails.
-Look for magnetic key holders, pill bottles, or homemade pvc containers.
-All log times in the trip descriptions are Central Time.
-If using a cell phone for searching, there are some areas where the signal may be weak or lost altogether.
-If traveled in the intended order, most of the caches will be on the right side of the road, others might need a quick u turn.

Take a Break and sow your oats :) GC2QWR6

I don’t like rock hides very much. Seems like endless possibilities where a container could be hiding. This was a rock hide on the edge of a trendy grocery store in the ‘burbs east of Stamford. It was early in the wee hours of the morning when I and I thoroughly enjoyed driving the NJ Turnpike. Wide open road and nobody in my way! Arrived at the location of the cache and had to start combing through all those rocks in the dark. C’mon, man! Fortunately I found in just a couple of minutes. After signing the log, it was time for yet another cat nap. Didn’t want to linger too long, as the sun would be coming up soon. You know how it is with cachers and muggles.

Departure Time – 4:20 am
