ROAD WARRIOR SERIES CT I-84 Cache 1 EXIT 1 Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

CTReviewer: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
CTReviewer

Geocache Description:

ROAD WARRIOR SERIES Fast on and off access from the highway - Road Warrior Series Cache 1 along I-84 in Danbury Connecticut. Exit 1 Welcome to Connecticut

This is the first of a four part series of Road Warrior Caches along I-84 in Connecticut. Once you have completed all four caches you will receive the official designation of “Connecticut I-84 Road Warrior”. To achieve this highly coveted title however you will need to rack up some miles.
We also expect to make an Interstate 95 series as well as some other state Road Warrior caches.

While in the area you may also want to check out Zurcher's Rest Area Cache just one exit further eastbound - GCKPAM

We always like to give credit where it is due and our Road Warrior caches were inspired by the Mass Pike Series by Stargeezer see GCNMVM, GCNMVC and the others. We really liked the concept so we wanted to emulate the technique with our own style.

Since most Road Warriors do not have time for extensive searching we made these caches easy road access and easy to find.

The caches are small so please limit exchanges to small TBs, $WheresGeorges or other small items. We will start off with two $WG dollars in each one – if you take one please leave one - It won’t cost you nuthin :)

FTF is a scratch lottery ticket in three of the four caches and one cache will have a Honey Wolf Wild Card Pack.

The First to complete all four caches and achieve “Connecticut Road Warrior” status will receive 24 hours advance notice of where we placed a winning Honey Wolf Wild Card Pack with a Joker Wild Card.

You should be able to exit the highway, find the cache, and be back on the highway within 15 minutes or less.

This cache was moved from the original location and is now 2 miles from the exit ramp. This is a bit further from the highway then we initially intended. However the drive from the highway is a direct straight shot and the revised location has a great deal of historic value and appeal. We decided that the trade off was well worth it -

Directions - off exit 1 drive South bound on Saw Mill rd about 2 miles - park in the pull off area by the cemetary gate or choose a safe alternate parking spot.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO MOVE ANY ROCKS TO LOCATE THIS CACHE SO DON'T -THANK YOU ;)

CONGRATULATIONS TO WIDE GLIDE! WHO BECAME THE FIRST CT-I 84 ROAD WARRIOR ON JULY 10, 2005 HAVING COMPLETED ALL FOUR OF THE SERIES . (and who could be more appropriate than WIDE GLIDE?)
