Anyhoo, here's another just NW of that one . If you are not into Jeeps you might be into this subject.

I like M & M's, but only the ones with peanuts. :lol:
Don't get the jeep thing.
We ought to do a NWO one, but I don't know where we would get that much clear space around here.. Ten caches in a mile, about, so that jet one took about 6 miles.

Yesterday I placed a power trail in the shape of an ammo can.

What about a power trail where the first one is a traditional,and each successive one along the line has the coords to the next one.
A line of Blue Squigglies as far as the trail can go!

I was sorta of thinking of the design aspect, like the jet, jeep, or mom.
We could do one in the shape of a Walleye out in the lake. Make it a 5/5 for scuba divers only. That would get some attention. :lol:

It should have two sets of coordinates, for the one ahead and behind it. That way the trail would be bidirectional. It should also be 500 long so those of us who are puzzle impaired could eventually complete the 500 blue squiggly challenge. :lol:

That's the best idea I have heard all day.

Here is a power trail for all you puzzle nuts. If you want a closer look, GC36FT1 is part of his eye. The power trail is located in Lake Winnipesaukee, from On Golden Pond fame. It sounds like the caches are hidden across a wider area than the usual two mile radius. I wonder how they got away with that.

I stumbled across it while reminiscing over some previous finds and DNFs since we used to go to the area for a family reunion every year.

I was wondering how they got traditionals in the middle of the lake. Upon further inspection, I see that they are Letterboxes.
