A virtual cache located in a scenic area south of Highway 177, south of beautiful Manhattan, Kansas.

I am not from this area, but I love to come up to Manhattan to geocache. I have driven by this location many times, but have never taken the time to stop and really look at the view. I stopped today and decided this one should be checked out.

I am sure the local geocachers have already been here. Now you guys have a reason to see it again. I hope that everyone else that has not been to this area will come see it. There are a lot of really great caches in the area to hunt. Bring your camera!



There are three plaques located at this location. On each one of the plaques you will need to answer a question. They are as follows:

GEOLOGY AT KONZA What are the last three words in bold letters in the lower right hand corner? KONZA PRAIRIE What are the last three words of the text on the plaque? KANSAS RIVER VALLEY Who was the Konza Prairie named after?

To verify that you have actually visited this cache and claim credit for a find, E-Mail Me Here, the answers to the three questions. Please do not post your answers on this page.



Have fun !!!

I enjoy this area of Kansas so much, but had never stopped at this scenic area. Answers to questions where sent on Nov. 16th when doing the posting. TFTC in the area. Too cool a day for any giggling girls when we stopped! BLT33

On a motorcycle ride around the countryside we ran across this area and figured their was a cache here. Looked it up on the phone and sure enough we could get one at this location. E-mailed the answers.

Road trip to Junction City, Kansas for my Aunt and Uncle's 50th wedding anniversary. The real fun with this cache came when we returned to verify our answers and interupted some couple trying to be "one" with nature, at first I thought it was a homeless person but the female giggling changed my mind on that, oh the stories you get when geocaching Johneblue sent email.
