Geocache Description:


A long day of geocaching in the hot sun can really make you thirsty.
This microcache is located at an interesting landmark along the historic Ashville-Montevallo Stagecoach Route, now Highway 119.
For more than 60 years, Rowan Springs has been a favorite place for travelers and citizens of the Leeds area to picnic and gather drinking water in an area where quality water was often hard to find. When owners Jim and Ella Rowan sold the property to Leeds Water Works Board, a condition of the sale was that the spring water would always be available to the public without charge. A water hydrant has been installed and is still in use today.
