Geocache Description:

Yeah- if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. But it is start of the River Valley Historical Tour

The River Valley Historical Tour
This is one of the River Valley Historical Tour caches. They are an assortment of caches designed to share the history of this area. Please take the time to appreciate this area for what it once was and what it can be again- a vibrant, thriving place where people lived, did business and raised their families. From the original people who fished and lived along the banks of the Penacook Falls (be sure to visit them while you are in the area) to the first settler, Jonathan Keyes in 1777 and the major changes brought by the arrival of Hugh Chisholm and his vision of a paper company in 1882, it has been a long and interesting journey for the Valley area. There is lots to see and do so come, make a day of it. Picnic with Paul Bunyan and his friends, swim at the local swimming holes or get some exercise on the hiking trails.

The caches are a wide variety of shapes, sizes and locations. We hope you have as much fun locating them as we did developing this project.

One thing: Please always think about what you write in your logs!! Spoilers (too much info, specific comments) can ruin it for the next cachers. Let’s keep it fun for all from the FTF to the latest seeker! Thank you

RVHT: Holmanstown
You are the outskirts of the area originally called Holmanstown since the land was owned by Colonel Jonathan Holman. When the pioneer settlers were planning to organize this into a town, in 1818, the Mexicans had recently won their war for freedom from the Spaniards. They named their new town “Mexico” to honor those Mexicans.
