This Geocache is one of several containers of various sizes hidden near a multi-use path in the Town of Duck, NC. The Town of Duck does not allow public street parking which means a 4 hour walk or 50 minute bicycle ride along the 9 mile round trip is required to locate all 31.

Parking coordinates are provided near the center of the cache series since The Town of Duck does not allow parking along any of its roads and Town Police enforce the "No Parking" policy. There may be places to park near several cache locations along the route depending on the time of day and the total local population but none are guaranteed and permission to park there has not been granted. Please at all times be alert to nearby traffic as several caches are in a downtown business area and some are close to a very busy roadway. You should also be alert for Muggles at virtually all hours.
Please remember to close container lids and replace each in its secured position. Also, stealth is of the utmost importance here all year long and is especially essential during the summer tourist season. Keep in mind that if your search activities are observed by any Muggles (and there will be many at all hours of the day) this cache is certain to wander off.

The Town of Duck sits in the Eastern Time zone which is five hours behind Coordinated Universal Time, or four hours behind when observing daylight saving time during the Summer months. Town offices are located at 1200 Duck Road with office hours from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each Monday through Friday if you want to stop by and thank them for allowing the placement of these cache containers. Town staff can be reached by calling (252) 255-1234. Duck does not have its own zip code and shares 27949 with nearby Kitty Hawk, NC. The telephone area code is 252.

Please park only at designated parking locations. Town officials granted permission for this cache placement. If you enjoyed the hunt and have time it might not hurt to stop by Town Hall or the Police Department and thank them for allowing this placement.
