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.

When the Duck Civic Association Board considered incorporating the community into a separate town as a way to control growth information was sent to all Duck property owners and registered voters with detailed financial projections and revenue projections based on making no tax changes from the current 17 cent per $100 valuation (11 cents for waste disposal/recycling, 4 cents for fire department, 1 cent for ocean rescue/lifeguards, and 1 cent for trail maintenance). Public response was overwhelmingly in favor of incorporation. A 10-person Incorporation Committee was formed and in February of 2001 a Duck incorporation petition was forwarded to the NC legislature where a Duck Incorporation Bill cleared the Senate on August 28 and the House on August 29, 2001. Duck was incorporated on May 1, 2002, as the newest Outer Banks town and the sixth municipality in Dare County.
