    Default Quick Caches in Bangor area

    I might be headed to theOld Town Canoe Factory Outlet this weekend, and wanted a list of quick caches in the area. Thanks!

    Default Oh come on...

    Trade all those Bangor quickies for my You Sank My Battleship! (GCB688) by brdad (4/2). You could do it in as little as 3 hours and still have time to buy a canoe. At least one of the stages is on the way there anyway.

    Looks like a good cache to do, but I will be with my brother and I highly doubt he will wanna drive around.

    You can't do Battleship in 6" of snow in 3 hours! More like 3 days
    Really worth doing if you have the time, though.

    Drop him off at Diva's, that'll give him something to do while you're caching.

    Well I have a few suggestions . . . but they are just suggestions. Incidentally, I need to update this list since there have been a bunch of other caches placed since I compiled this list.

    I don't think you'd find any FTF's there

    Smile Try these....

    These are ones I did when I was there to pick up my Maine geocoins in Feb.


    He Shoots, ME Scores!

    Hampden Highlights

    Dorothea Dix

    Tribute to Maine Cachers

    Joshua Chamberlain Cache

    Indian Trail

    Prentiss cache

    Carmel Rest Stop Cache



    Hampden and Tribute were multis and took a while but were fun. The others only took about a half hour each on a cold winter day. You can probably do better now.

    Happy Hunting.

    I would suggest doing Alex's Monster Multiple Nightmare # 2 GCP6N8 it will take you approximately 2 days and probably $100.00 worth of gas at the prices that they are today.....lol On a more serious note though, there are many caches in the Bangor, Brewer area that will take you very little time.

    friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

    I was thinking of suggesting the same thing, but thought I probably should behave myself. I'm still working on this one . . . a little at a time.

    A couple more caches were just released in Bangor today . . . if the GPSr is working correctly they're pretty easy to get to and one is pretty unique (at least it's the first one of its sort that I have run across.)
