The cache is in the area of the E.B. Lyons Interpretative Center, in the Mines of Spain, and can be accessed from the trails in the area. If you step off the trail, be careful where you walk to avoid causing any damage to the scrubs, flowers and grasses. The cache should not be visible to anyone just walking in the area but there could be muggles around. The cache is placed with the permission of the Iowa DNR and of the Master Gardener. The Master Gardener has been working on improving the gardens. IT IS NOT IN THE BUILDING. Enjoy your walk around the grounds.
E. B. Lyons Interpretative Center
E. B. Lyons
Edwin B. Lyons, remembered for the E. B. Lyons Interpretative Center bearing his name, established Dubuque's famous Peony Trail in memory of his wife in 1938. In 1941, as chairman of the Dubuque Civic Garden Club's Peony Project, he announced a $500 fundraiser to expand the project. He was also a frequent contributor to the Telegraph Herald with articles on the care of peonies. Through a trust fund, he fulfilled his wife's dream with a trail of peony plants on the islands along two miles of Grandview Avenue and in city parks. He served as chairman of the Peony Trail Committee for many years.
