Geocache Description:

A tricky nano celebrating the soiled doves of Myers Avenue and Poverty Gulch in Cripple Creek, CO. Logbook only, BYOP!


You're looking for a nano near the eh, beautiful, and historic Cripple Creek where it flows down from Poverty Gulch. Bob Womack made the first discovery of gold in upper Poverty Gulch, and as the mines began to move down the valley, the working girls followed. Eventually Myers Avenue became one of the most famous Red Light districts in the west, with the finest establishments, such as the Old Homestead, located towards the end of the street. As you moved further up closer to the mines, the madams disappeared and instead rougher saloons and "cribs" offered the services of less fortunate soiled doves. After you find this cache, stop and remember the hard life of women in the west, respectable and not so. 

Major spoiler in hint.
