Menominee County does not currently have a lot of caches, so we
thought it would be fun to create a series of caches to bring
people to a bunch of places within the county that may have not
been seen by most geocachers and travelers before and to place a
few new caches. To that end we have placed at least one cache in
each of the 14 townships of the county as well as a few other
municipalities. We tried to take you off the beaten path a little
bit with this series, we hope that you enjoy hunting these caches
as much as we enjoyed placing them.
Mellen Townshiop
Mellen township is located in the southern part of Menominee
County. It has an area of 31.4 square miles and a 2000 population
of 1,260. Wallace is the townships largest town, located on US 41.
The entire township is part of the Stephenson Area Public Schools
District.
This cache is located just down river from the dam at a public
access spot in Mellen Township. Please take a second and take in
the breathtaking views of the Menominee River. You may disagree
with us, but this is probably our favorite spot of the series once
you get down the trail a little bit.
This cache is part of the Menominee County Challenge (MCC)
series. Please be sure to note the letter on the inside of the
cache lid, as you will need this letter to come up with the
coordinates for the final cache.
