behind these walls

This cache hunt will take you near some of the many miles of floodwalls
that line the rivers of Broome County.

These floodwalls, constructed by the US Army Corps of Engineers were
built after the signing of the  FDR's Flood Control Act of 1936.

flood

Raging waters from the Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers
like Broome County experienced in 1935 and 1936 are now largely
kept at bay by these walls.

The cache is a small container containing a pen and log book--
suitable for small trade items only.

a little something special for the FTF!
