Geocache Description:

Take a drive on some Columbia County back roads to seek a micro in 'close proximity' to an impressive stone bridge, built back in 1852. No need to climb or trespass, this cache is right there in front of you.

From http://www.hvrt.org

"In 1852, the New York & Harlem Railroad was built north to Chatham, NY. This completed an extension of the railroad more than 125 miles northward from its origins in Manhattan. Products could now be transported by rail directly to New York City rather than depending on river transport via Poughkeepsie. The extended line also provided a rail route for people and commerce northward to Albany, Boston, and towns in Vermont and Canada."


Simple micro with just a log sheet. Enjoy!
