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 #40 - NH
Welcome to the Granite State GC4NW5H

Another rest stop and another smilie! This one was actually a bit more challenging a the place was pretty busy with all manner of travelers milling about. Not to mention the cache container was a magnetic key box stuck under a payphone in an entry door. Walked around the place a bit waiting for the area to clear and then I swooped in like I had a call to make. Made a quick scratch on the log and I was on to the next one without anyone ever suspecting a thing. Cachers are like that. Only 8-to-go!

Departure Time – 1:06 pm
