Issue with communication distances

Hi all,
I'm thinking of using·three DS2760's to read temperatures from three thermocouples to control concrete curing.· These thermocouples·would be insterted at different locations, some of which could be up to 100 feet away from the stamp microcontroller.· I already know that thermocouples can't extend that far, so the DS2760 must·be placed·close to the thermocouple.··To ensure reliable communication between the stamp and the DS2760·(up to 100 feet away) what should be done?
Thanks for your help,

I haven't used an iButton; from other postings on the forum, my understanding is that you can get long distances between 1-wire devices.
