Geocache Description:

This is the 4th cache in my series.

In 1881, H.T. Reed laid out the town of Monteith on his land and the railroad built a depot. The Rock Island passed through Monteith several times a week. The schoolhouse was built in 1881 and the Christian church was built in 1897. Interestingly, several of the businesses that sprung up in the town were actually moved from Leadville, a small-but-quickly-fading community that was located just a quarter of a mile south of Monteith.

Must see: Monteith Town Park, Monteith Cemetery

How to get there:
Hwy 25 S from Guthrie Ctr.
Turn E on Monteith Road
