Geocache Description:

This non existent town is right on the edge of Rice County.  No buildings are still here, but you can find where the train tracks and electric poles that have been removed left their marks.  Even putting Crawford, KS into Google maps doesn't let you find this gem.  You have to look for it the old fashioned way.  But, believe it or not, it was here at one time.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crawford,_Kansas  tells a little about it including the post office that was here for a long time.  How sad to have completely dissappeared.

 

This is a small clear round snap top magnetic container.  It has very small swag (dragon tears, marbles, etc)  Bring your own pen. 

Even though all the buildings are gone, there are some relics here still.  Look for something that stands out from the nature around it.  If it hadn't been for the "supports" it has gotten, it too would probably be gone.
