Geocache Description:


Highway 56 was bypassed by Highway 82 many years ago. As a result, many small towns that sit on Highway 56 were all but forgotten. This caching series is a tour of these small towns and historical points along this road. Highway 56 stretches through alomost exactly two counties, from Whitesboro, Texas in Grayson County to Honey Grove, Texas in Fannin County.

This is a multi-cache with the final being a tree climb. To acquire the final coordinates, read the historical marker and answer this question.
