This cache is near a historical marker commemorating Father
Escalante. It reads.
FATHER ESCALANTE In commemoration of the Catholic priest, Father
Escalante, who, in 1776 came into Utah. He crossed the Green River
at Jensen, and camped two days at that place. His diary shows that
he camped at the junction of Strawberry and Duchesne Rivers one
night and then traveled on northwest up through what he called "The
Canyon of the Swallows." This is the canyon in which Ivie's Ranch
is now located. This became an important intersection in Pioneer
days as distances were reckoned from this point.
