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.

State #39 - MA
95 NORTH GC1WV5Q

A rest stop on north bound I-95 served as the host for this cache. The rest stop was closed either for remodeling or for whatever reason, but the cache was open for business! There was a well carved picnic table off near the tree line, and the cache was stuck underneath one of the benches. I did have to wait for some people to have to finish walking their dogs, but it was nice and sunny out and a good chance to stretch the legs. Wish I had time to go visit Gillette Stadium nearby. 9-to go!

Departure Time – 11:08 am
