Geocache Description:

The cache is a 35mm container. It is not winter friendly.

This is one of the caches in a series of caches dedicated to Fallen Flag railroads. Fallen Flags are those railroads that no longer exist either through abandonment or corporate takeover. With each cache will come a short history lesson explaining a little something about the railroad.

DSP&P are the initials of the Denver, South Park, and Pacific railroad. It was a narrow gauge line (3’ between the rails) that started life in Denver in 1874 and was headed to the mining camps in the mountains.

This cache has been placed on the railroad grade a short distance up the line from Como as it headed up to Boreas Pass and subsequently over Fremont Pass to Leadville. There is a historic cabin for rent here.
