La Grande Aventure Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

MainePublisher: All geocache placements must have a responsive owner. The cache owner must be able to respond to issues that come up and to submit an "owner maintenance" log to remove the "needs maintenance" icon.

In addition to the "needs maintenance" logs and DNF logs, Goundspeak also uses a Health Score algorithm. https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713

In this case, Groundspeak has sent an email to the cache owner with no response. The cache owner did not respond to any of the cachers hoping to find the cache and did not respond to the reviewer note so the cache is now archived.

The cache location is now open for any Geocacher to place a new cache, including the original cache owner.

Geocache Description:



You can get to this cache by land or by lake. When going by land, take NH-113 to Pinehurst Road and drive 0.9 miles. There is limited parking available on the right before the stone gate. The trailhead is a driveway on the left a little ways beyond the gate.

Head up the path, passing a sugar shack on the left, past the sign that lists all the trails.

At 0.2 miles, the Five Finger Point Trail begins. Follow it 0.7 miles more to the start of the 1.3 mile loop along the shoreline of Squam Lake. You can take the loop either way. Go to the left and before long you’ll come to a place with a wonderful jumping rock. Go right and you’ll find wonderful vistas of the lake.

When you get to the coordinates, face away from East and West Rattlesnake, and sight through two tiny brass circles to see the location of the cache a tenth of a mile away. If you're travelling by land, some bushwhacking will be necessary.

This cache was placed as part of The Big Adventure, a long-standing annual tradition between the cache hiders.
