Ely Ford Morman Crossing Traditional Cache

This cache was placed for the Welcome to Lacey Keosauqua event. This cache has been approved by permit.

During the middle of the 19th century, the great Mormon trek westward across Iowa occurred.

Ely Ford, located within Lacey-Keosauqua State Park, now the site of a beautiful picnic area, was a river crossing point.

It is now a component of the Mormon Pioneer Trail.

This cache is hidden just off a trail that runs near the Monument. The cache is a PB jar. Please sign the log.
