Rana Pirica: Hello,

It is Rana Pirica, the geocache maintenance frog, hopping through your area to check on geocache maintenance.

Since there has been no owner activity on this cache page and it has been over 30 days since the request to perform maintenance, this cache has been archived. Please remove any remaining cache components if you have not already done so. If there are questions about the archival or if you would like it to be re-considered for listing please e-mail me or your local reviewer in response to this archival, and we will help to unarchive your cache if possible. I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and look forward to seeing your further participation in the future.

Sincerely,
Rana Pirica

Geocache Description:

This cache is located near the West Prestonsburg bridge. It replaces a previous cache in the area that has been archived, GCMR2E-Prestonsburg's Community Symbol (Icon).

Icon is defined as a "usually pictorial symbol". Driving around Prestonsburg, you'll observe that this bridge has indeed become an icon representing the city.

This bridge, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 (#89000397), spans the Levisa Fork of the Big Sandy River between Prestonsburg and West Prestonsburg.

Although the bridge is now closed to vehicular traffic, you can still enjoy its architecture and allow it to transport you to days gone by.

Approach the cache site from the West Prestonsburg side of the river.

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE:
1) Please park at the parking waypoint on the cache listing.
2) You should avoid private property. It is NOT necessary to cross or otherwise be on the private property in the area (grass, driveways, etc.).
3) As of 5/16/08, the cache has a new location. It is no longer out on the bridge, but rather is at the end of the bridge.

FTF Congrats to SpongeBob CachePants!!
