Geocache Description:

This cache was placed in honor of my first cache on this trail "Going The Distance" that I placed here in 2003. It was muggled and I never put it back. I thought it was time with the new caches on the trail and have placed it near its orginal location because of the great view!

Hampton Permit #11011115.

This is a very small cache that can contain micro type items only. Make sure you bring your own pen or pencil. It is located on the Matteson Trail. The Matteson Trail encirlces the Hampton's Golf Course. Watch out for golf balls! It is a nature/fitness trail that is 3 miles long. It is a totally paved trail that can accommodate walking, running, rollerblades, strollers and wheelchairs! It is open Sunrise to Sunset. The challenges will be going the distance and avoiding muggles. It can be a busy trail but worth the walk. The cache is located about 1.4 miles into the trail from one trail head ( N37 03.931 W076 23.983) and about 1.6 miles in from the other trail head (N37 03.877 W076 24.072). It will be a 3-mile journey no matter how you do it! You can park at the Fitness Center parking lot. Look at the picture below for a map of the trail.

Will you go the distance? If you do, make sure you check out the other close by caches on the trail!
