About the Container
You are looking for a small black magnetic container. It is too small to hold most travel bugs or trade items. Please bring your own pen.
About the Location
This cache is hidden on the bridge next to the trail. You don't need to climb anywhere or go down to the street to find it.
This old railroad bridge was part of the C&NW line. According to a nearby plaque it was built by the McClintic Marshall Corporation in 1932. It must not be the original bridge because the tracks go back to the late 1800s. When I first placed this geocache the bridge was still its original color and it was covered with graffiti. The Parks Department painted it gray during the summer of 2016.
