Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the Worldwide Cache Exchange!


NEW COORDINATES: N 42° 37.136 W 071° 39.342

This idea was created by a group of geocachers on Facebook who thought it would be cool to trade items representing our native area/country to a cacher in a different part of the country/world.  As part of this exchange, my teammate redhedmary, a cacher from the Grand Rapids area of the state of Michigan, sent me an entire cache filled to the brim with swag that represents the area and state she lives in.  I then went and hid that cache.  As part of the exchange, I mailed an entire cache filled with swag representing my area, Boston, and the state of Massachusetts to redhedmary in Michigan.  She will be hiding my cache somewhere in her area.  In case you're curious about the other half of this exchange, you can find it here: GC5DTKE.

I've seen a little bit of controversy about this cache style on FB and want to make it clear that while she sent me the cache, it is placed under my care and it will be my responsibility to maintain it, therefore I 'own' it.  She will do the same for me in return.  As I wish to collect every state at some point, my mission will to someday be able to visit my own cache!  As long as it stays active, I promise you that this WILL happen someday...

The hide is not difficult to find and is just off of some nice wide trails. Kid friendly.

Parking is the same as for my other cache in the area, GC57FZJ.
