Hey ya'll!
Some members of the ArkGeo Board and I have been discussing a new series of caches we'd like to see ArkGeo folks get started in Arkansas. A cacher named cgeek began a series in Tennessee called LTL - Loop the Loop. Originally it was begun to give folks caches within a half mile of the exits off I-40 from Memphis to Jackson and has now spread across to their border with North Carolina. Think - we could take I-40 to Oklahoma, I-30 to Texas, and I-55 to Missouri! There are many caches already in place that could just add the series designation to the beginning of their cache name, such as I-40 Exit 78, Rusty's Cache # 2. This could help travelers, especially with the attributes such as nearby restrooms, etc. Most of theirs are easy, some a bit more difficult. Imagine the potential for a mega-cache run! For an example of theirs, try looking at LTL - Appling Road by cgeek (GCWAED). I do think we should list the Exit number or mile marker.
Some name ideas:
Arkansas Interstates
Caching Across Arkansas
Welcome to Arkansas
Border to Border - Traveling Arkansas
Exit Arkansas
Arkansas Next Exit
Arkansas Naturally Loves Cachers
We could do any of these with the acronym, then the exit number. If there is more than one at an exit, we could list it as east or whichever side is the closest.
I have a tentative cache description started, anyone will be free to cut and paste or do their own thing.
Need not be a member - this is just for fun!
I'll also volunteer to do a bookmark list for at least one of the interstates.
What cha'll think?
