Geocache Description:


As you travel the wooden boardwalk, imagineCache Street being ankle-deep in mud and ice, rendered almost impassable by the spring melt. In 1920, this was a very common sight in the developing town of Jackson, WY. A small group of women, later known as the "Petticoat Rule" decided to change it. In 1920, they ran for the local government, won, and became the nation's first all-women's town council. Their goals included creating better roads (which, as you can see, did happen). 

Though settled very late, the valley of Jackson Hole has a rich and unique history. One can still visit many of the historic landmarks in and around the town to this day. If you were the Homesteaders looking out over the Jackson Hole Valley, what would you see?
