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.

Why You Buggin'?! GC279J3
Another quick grab across the state border! It wasn’t really near the interstate, but it wasn’t too far away. The listing shows the cache in a park, but it looks more like a wooded lot overgrown with all manner of trees and a good place to hide a cache (or a body). There was no parking other than in someone’s driveway next door, or in a small rented building occupied by a local motorsports repair business. I parked in their gravel lot and thankfully they didn’t seem to bother with me climbing up the retaining wall and disappearing into the woods. It would be embarrassing to tell them I found a geocache and not hiding a stash of gold or something in there. The cache container was nicely done, some plastic bugs glued to the outside of the lock-n-lock and hidden under a fallen log. Signed the logbook and was time to make the secret escape passed the gear heads in the garage. Yay! The 10-to-go countdown has begun!
