Trail of Multi's #9 Multi-Cache

Welcome to the trail of Multi's which runs along Kelso Valley Road. You will likely not have cell reception so be sure to down load a list before you start. The whole trail is on paved road so any car should be fine. I have had this idea for some time now to place a trail of caches, only making them simple 2 stage multis, instead of traditional caches. I'm hoping this will draw caches into the KRV which is an awesome location to go geocaching. Also, it will help those who love statistics and need to add to their multi numbers. The series is placed along a 20 mile paved section of Kelso Valley Road. There are a variety of containers and not all the caches are easy like you would see on a traditional power trail. There are no caches placed near residences so SkinnyP will come and do my trail. The theme of each cache is based on the Trail of Tears. Each cache will add new information about the Trail of Tears. The story starts at 1 and ends at 31. A good website to use to calculate distance and heading is https://www.geocachingtoolbox.com/index.php?lang=en&page=distanceBearingMidpoint&status=result

Andrew Jackson did not listen to the Supreme Court mandate barring Georgia from intruding on Cherokee lands. He feared that enforcement would lead to open warfare between federal troops and the Georgia militia, which would compound the ongoing crisis in South Carolina and lead to a broader civil war. Instead, he vigorously negotiated a land exchange treaty with the Cherokee. Political opponents Henry Clay and John Quincy Adams, who supported the Worcester decision, were outraged by Jackson's refusal to uphold Cherokee claims against the state of Georgia. Author and political activist Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote an account of Cherokee assimilation into the American culture, declaring his support of the Worcester decision.
