Welcome To Casper Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Heartland Cacher: Greetings I'm Heartland Cacher, one of the volunteer reviewers for caches submitted to Geocaching.com.

Please use the “Write Note” feature to leave notes on the cache page.


Please do not use the "OWNER MAINTENANCE" log until you do the maintenance and the cache is ready to be found again.


This cache was brought to my attention by one or more of your fellow cachers that think this cache is missing and/or in need of maintenance. I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and I am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner the opportunity to check on the cache, and repair it, if necessary. Cache maintenance includes listing maintenance including updating any changes to the text, updating coordinates, removing needs maintenance attributes and enabling the listing. If the owner feels they will not be able to repair this in a timely manner, let me know, and I'll archive it. This will keep the cache from continually showing up in search lists. It can be enabled once you have made repairs.

I am temporarily disabling this cache but when repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to enable your cache, it will be no problem. You can re-enable the cache page http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 by clicking the link under the cache name or by checking the box that says the cache is active. If a "Needs Maintenance" log was posted, you will also need to log an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" icon from the geocache page. http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404

I look forward to hearing from you. Do not reply to this email. It is sent by a no-reply mailbot so I won't get it. To respond, please do NOT send me an e-mail or a message center conversation as they lack needed functionality for reviewing. Leave a new "Reviewer Note" log here on your cache page. If you're not familiar with this process, see the instructions https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=97&pgid=74. I have your cache on my watchlist, and I will receive a notification when you write your note.

"If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived."

Additionally, if more than four weeks have passed without a response, the cache page will be considered abandoned. Abandoned cache pages may be archived at a future date without notice. Don't let your cache get archived for non-communication.

Thanks for your understanding,
Heartland Cacher
Your friendly Geocaching.com Community Volunteer Reviewer

Geocache Description:

This is located at a monument to early pioneers of a particular industry in Casper and other locations throughout Wyoming. There may still be some waterline construction going on so watch for trucks and graders.

This shouldn't be a hard cache to find. We wanted folks to get a close up view of something that only the attentive passenger might see from a distance.

The container is a small round lock-n-lock which can be uncovered by moving a single 4 inch by 6 inch irregularly shaped whitish gray rock. The specific rock can be identified by decoding the clue below if you need it.

This location can be reached off the end of a paved road and along a dirt road leading to a light industrial area. There is a small parking area at the end of the dirt road. There a sidewalk leads to the monument area. Some help may be needed for wheelchairs between the parking area and the sidewalk. The monument sits on land donated to the City of Casper and visits should conform to hours of other City parks (6AM to 10 PM) although you might draw attention from nearby folks after dark if they happen to be working late.

The cache contains a 1943 (I think) Mercury dime as a first to find prize. There is also an Alaska Railroad lapel pin (FTF, please take only one of the above-your choice), two of our team tokens, log, and pencil.
