Geocache Description:


Welcome to the beautiful town of Southern Shores/Kitty Hawk.  "Kitty Hawk was called Chickahauk by native Indians - some believe "Kitty Hawk" is the closest English pronunciation of the Indian phrase meaning "goose hunting grounds."  Others say that the local term for the ever-present dragonflies --"skeeter hawk" was further twisted by the island brogue to sound like "kitty hawk". In any case, the name was established enough by the mid-1700's to be used on land deeds."

Lots of places to look for a cache around here - our hint below is related to the the history of the name "Kitty Hawk" and should help you find the cache quickly.  Please make sure the cache is hidden well when you return it, and use stealth - lots of sun-baked muggles in these parts on a beautiful summer day! * The adjacent parking lot is permit only so make sure to bring a driver to stay with the car as you look for the cache.
