This cache is one of several located along the roads that wend through the Lollie Bottoms area. Three of the 78 historical schools that once existed in Faulkner County were located along this stretch of road.
The Red Hill School (historical) was once also located near this site. In 1909 there were 5,110 school districts in Arkansas with 78 of those being in Faulkner County. Dew Drop School was one of those. Today there are only 238 school districts in the state with 6 of them being in county. There is a reference point that shows the actual location of the school that was once nearby. That location is now on private land.
Also near here (see the reference point) is the Red Hill Cemetery, long abandoned and on private land. According to "Faulkner County, Arkansas Census of Cemeteries as of December 31, 1987" (Published by the Faulkner County Historical Society), many believe that this cemetery was the burial place of travellers on the Arkansas River in the early 19th century, and is therefore the oldest identifiable graveyard in Faulkner County.

You are looking for a small magnetic container hidden in the traditional manner in a familiar spot and should be a PNG.
Parking is limited and DANGEROUS, so please be careful since there is often quite a bit of traffic.
Let me know if the cache needs attention.
Notes:
1.GNIS details for the Red Hill School (historical) can be viewed here: https://on.doi.gov/2V2qu6v. The term "historical" as used in the GNIS means specifically and only that the feature no longer exists on the landscape. It has no reference to age, size, condition, extent of habitation, type of use, or any other factor.
