Historical markers and, to some extent, benchmarks are a staple of virtuals, multi-caches and puzzles in Utah and I presume elsewhere. Here in the Brighton Bowl, we have a feature that begs for such a cache. There is a single rock that has both a historical marker and a benchmark embedded in it. Regulars to Brighton probably already know where this is, but if you do not, the benchmark designation is LO0827. Once you find the rock, you will need to answer these questions from either the historical marker or the benchmark to find the location of the cache.
