The History of Guard Rail Fun Caches
In the fall of 2009, I made my first trip to Washington, D.C. and the northeast states. My trip coincided with some of the worst rain and coastal flooding they had experienced all year. I was anxious to get at least two caches in each state as I completed more states on my visited states map. Let me tell you, I was desperate to find some easy park & grab caches so I didn't get drowned in the rainstorms. As I hunted for an easy 1.5/1.5 park and grab, I decided I would create a series of really easy guard rail caches for folks that were in my neighborhood and needed a quick park and grab.
Requirements to be a Guard Rail Fun Cache
The Guard Rail Fun caches should be quick and easy; they should have excellent coords, convenient nearby parking and should usually be around the end of the guard rail if possible. Most of my GRFs have an accuracy of seven feet or less. They are usually micros but might be a little bigger. Oh yeah, and they are all on or in a guard rail.
Where to find Guard Rail Fun Caches
When I began the Guard Rail Fun cache series, I started with over twenty GRF caches of my own. Friends and fellow cachers wanted to get in on the fun and began placing GRF caches of their own. As a reward for their efforts, I sent everyone that created six GRF caches a beautiful GRF Pathtag. I will also send a GRF pathtag to anyone that creates a GRF cache in a state or country where there isn't one already.

States where you can find a GRF Cache 
If you are interested in creating a GRF cache in your state, province or country, please create a cache that meets the requirements listed above, and contact me for the next available GRF number for you to use when you publish your cache. The cache names are GRF and the cache number, with no spaces in the title. For an example, GRF131 is a GRF cache owned by Wascalley Wabbit.
