FDR by Horse ─ Wyatt Earp (Marshall)
hidden by: Joebids




Wyatt Earp (1848 – 1929) was a gambler, Deputy Sheriff, and Deputy Town Marshal in Tombstone, Arizona.

Earp took part in the famous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, during which Earp and his companion lawmen killed three outlaw Cowboys.

Earp was at different times in his life a city policeman, county sheriff, a teamster, buffalo hunter, bouncer, saloon-keeper, gambler, brothel-owner, pimp, miner, and a boxing referee.


Cache Description:
This is another Geocache on the Horse Trail hidden in a way to give another 'Smiley'.   You may be reminded of a song Elvis sang while he was locked up on this cache.

Please be careful on the retrieval and replacement of the container and watch out for the law.
