Ammo can along road overlooking a seldom seen large segment of the
scenic Missouri River
The cache is along a mile long segment of river breaks ridge road
overlooking the Missouri in an area seldom seen except by local
residents. It is not necessary to enter private lands or to cross
any fences. Parking is OK near the cache. Take the opportunity to
drive the entire mile for spectacular scenic river views.
The cache is well-stocked with swag originally; be sure to trade
fairly and straight-up (one for one) for TBs and Geocoins.
This cache may be wheelchair accessible for the sturdy.
Be sure to replace the container as you found it so others can
enjoy the hide. Remember to sign the log as that is your best
evidence of a find; online find logs that are not supported by such
are subject to deletion.
Iona is now officially a Ghost Town (no post office); but has
enjoyed a colorful history. Farming and ranching remains a robust
industry here.

May 20, 2008 by James Bridger (2478 found) The sense of melancholy from the school pervades here, as this is a scenic area, and it seems a shame more don't stop to appreciate the view. Parked at the side of the road and grabbed the cache, finding it at the fringe (thankfully), and signed the log. Took nothing, left signature card and JB dice game. Thanks for the nice drive and the cache.
