Benchmarking on LBI can be challenging in peak season due to traffic and parking limitations, if you choose to use a vehicle. Park strategically and fan out on foot or bike to get the best results. Benchmarking off season is best. Also, benchmarking post-Sandy might make your searches a bit more challenging! Good luck, and happy benchmarking!
This mark is also loggable on Geocaching. Please consider logging your visit on both sites. Thank you.
