View Full Version : Unscramble the Maine city/town...
Cache Maine 06-24-2007, 07:03 PM Okay, here goes.
I'll give you a Maine city/town/etc. that has been scrambled. Figure it out and then its your turn to post one. (No need to wait and see if you get it right....if all the letters are there then you are right!)
Please use places that are found in a recent Maine Gazetteer. This is meant to be an easier alternative to the "cache name scramble thread." Please keep it simple.
Here's the first one:

Good Luck! Bonus Points if you can also name a cache in that city/town without looking it up! :D

Sudonim 06-25-2007, 04:56 PM I just wanted to make sure that he didn't mean another place that I wasn't seeing.
Cache Maine 06-25-2007, 06:10 PM I kept seeing that one too, but went back to the drawing board. What's with the missing I's anyway?
Hiram357 06-25-2007, 06:25 PM I kept seeing that one too, but went back to the drawing board. What's with the missing I's anyway?

Sudonim 06-26-2007, 11:50 PM The only thing I can come up with is DENNISTOWN PIT, but that's wrong, should be PLT. Do we have I's and L's mixed up here???
