S100Y2 / Kaier Mansion Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Fritzi: I don't usually rush out to check this one, as every other time someone has reported a DNF it's always been there. However, since we're going on vacation I figured I'd better give it a look-see. Good thing too, this time it is well and truly missing. It had a pretty good run for a nano on the street corner. Thanks to all who visited!

Geocache Description:

A Schuylkill 100 Year 2 Cache

You are standing in front of the beautiful Kaier Mansion. This historic Victorian mansion, was owned by brew master Charles D. Kaier, founder of the Charles D. Kaier Company. The brewing company is no more (the remains of it can be seen a few blocks away) but this elegant structure remains. Mr. Kaier spared no expense in creating a home to incorporate all of the grandeur and elegance associated with the Victorian Era. The building was purchased in 1991, restored and converted into a bed & breakfast. It has a featured story in the book, "Weird Pennsylvania" and at least one of the rooms is supposedly haunted. Take a moment to admire this beautifully preserved piece of local history.

Cache itself is a nano, and you do not have to leave the sidewalk to retrieve. Difficulty was raised due to container size and public location.

Enjoy!!
