Geocache Description:


"On Elkhorn N" is a series of caches highlighting bridges over North Elkhorn Creek. This creek is historically significant to the history of Lexington, which marks its source; Georgetown, built on its banks at a major spring tributary; and Frankfort, where it joins South Elkhorn into Elkhorn Creek. Its 74 miles has been used for transportation, industry, fishing, and recreation since at least the 1600's. North Elkhorn is canoeable from as high as Blackford Pkwy (N 38 1.57370W 84 23.84478) at high water, but because of fences and access is not practical until Bryan Station Rd (N 38 4.59343W 84 24.81431) and then the put-in is a bit tricky. The cache names are numbered by river miles from source. See my Google Map "North Elkhorn Creek, KY" (visit link)
