Geocache Description:


Joliet has many historic spots that have impacted the Chiacgoland region. But this spot is different. The spot represents what Joliet has done for the world. Near GZ you will see a plaque that describes what this area is. The spot is significant to Joliet in two ways. One it is the oldest standing construction in Joliet. But wait there is more. This is also the spot where John D. Paige was the first to flavored water under pressure and bottle is, thus creating soda pop. What remains is an old underground cellar that over time and due to mining is exposed now. I remember hearing stories from my dad growing up in Joliet how they came to this spot to get pop and such. The limestone is a prefect natural cooler.

You are looking for a GOJ&C seed cache. There is no need to go into the brush or do any climbing to find this one.
