THE CACHE IS LOCATED ON THE LAUREDALE BRANCH TRAIL DOWN THE HILL FROM THE CEMETERY. IN THE WOODS JUST OFF THE TRAIL. THIS WILL BE A NICE HIKE ON A VERY WIDE AND CLEAR TRAIL.
FROM THE CEMETERY LOOK FOR THE TRAIL HEAD MARKER SIGN.THE TRAIL HEAD IS MARKED WITH A SIGN THAT SAYS" LAUREL DALE BRANCH TRAIL. THEN TAKE A SMALL HIKE DOWN THE TRAIL AND A FEW FEET OFF THE TRAIL YOU WILL FIND THE CACHE. I WOULD USE SOME DEEP WOOD OFF SPRAY TO KEEP THE TICKS AWAY AND WATCH OUT FOR POISON IVY. I HOPE TO PLACE MORE CACHES IN THIS BEAUTIFUL WOODLAND GET AWAY. THE MAYOR OF WOLF CEEEK MY FATHER IN-LAW WILL TAKE CARE OF THE CACHE WHEN I AM NOT HERE VISITING."The world watched in 1880 as famous British author, statesman and social reformer Thomas Hughes dedicated America's Rugby. It was to be a cooperative, class-free society where Britain's younger sons of gentry--and artisans, tradesman and farming families--could build a new community through agriculture, temperance and high Christian principles."
Rugby today is a heritage treasure, listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972. In a rugged river gorge setting, little changed by 20th century technology, this would-be Utopia survives. More than twenty of its decorative, gabled buildings remain. Rugby's British and Appalachian heritage is visible everywhere. ENJOY THE HISTORIC TOWN OF RUGBY AND HAPPY HUNTING.
