+4dingdongz Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I will be visiting D.C. and Annapolis this weekend. I won't have much time to cache, but I would like to bag a few in each locale. Any recommendations would be appreciated. I also will be driving over from Ohio via 70E-79S-68E-70E to Annapolis. Does any know any quickies to hit at any rest areas or anything like that?

ucmike Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 dc has about 10,000 virts and a few regular caches. do a zipcode search. you'll find more than you know what to do with. Quote Link to comment
+4dingdongz Posted January 14, 2004 Author Share Posted January 14, 2004 I definitely know how to do the searches. I guess I was just hoping for some recommendations of good ones other people have done. The plan is to be around the Memorials and the Smithsonian. Quote Link to comment
ucmike Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 (edited) mostly virts around the memorials and such. regular caches might attract security and the 1000's of visitors everyday would probably stumble across anything less than the most devious hidden caches. we did a weekend down there and actually grabbed a wayward tb that had been left in a tree by a cacher in town on business who never got to a cache so he left it tied with a rubberband about 500' from the lincoln memorial and asked for help on the forums. have fun Edited January 15, 2004 by ucmike Quote Link to comment
+robert Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 As was already suggested, pretty much all virts down in the "heart" of DC. Once you get out to Annapolis, you should have no problem finding some regular caches. I wish I had some specifics for you, but I haven't ventured over that way just yet. Enjoy your trip.

+TeamK-9 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Has anyone ever been on like a white house tour with their GPSr in their briefcase/satchel type thing? I was just wandering cause I'm planning a trip up there this summer, and I'm getting tickets for a tour from my senator, and I don't think it would be very efficient to go from the suburbs (where the hotel will be) into town without my GPS so I don't get stopped at the security checkpoint and then have to go back and get the gps...

+JoeCthulhu Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I've taken my GPS into the White House on three different occasions(a West Wing tour 12/02, Easter 03, and 4th of July 03). I've been trying to find someone who can tell me where the Moon Tree located their is, but haven't had any luck so far. Quote Link to comment
