Geocaching Adventures: 150 Civil War Geotrail - North Carolina

Had the opportunity on Friday to go out with wife Amy and look for some of the geocaches available for the North Carolina 150 Civil War Geotrail. I have to admit that it is truly an amazing collection of historic sites.

Now when I say geotrail this is not like the usual stereotypical geotrails. These are not geocaches placed every 600ft with one right after the next. No, these geocaches are spread out all over the state of North Carolina. Which are broken up into five regions and all designed to show you key points of history you may never have known existed.

When attempting the 150 Civil War Geotrail do not think you are going to be able two blow through this in a day or weekend. This is going to take some time to complete.

Here is where you can get some vital information for accomplishing this amazing historical adventure. If you are brand new to geocaching you will need to create a geocaching account. You can go here to do that -[ REGISTER ]- or www.geocaching.com.
