Geocache Description:


This cache takes you to a historic wooden public stairway. The stairway, and wooden sidewalk above, once corresponded to a streetcar line that ran to Council Crest Park from 1906 to 1949. Many amusement parks were built at the end of streetcar routes to encourage people to ride on weekends; Oaks Bottom is one of our last remaining. The amusement park at Council Crest operated from 1907-1929 and was called "The Dreamland of the Northwest". It featured a miniature railway, a paddleboat, hot air balloon rides, a "mammoth" fun house, dancing "every nite except Sunday", a ferrris wheel, observatory, carousel and tea pavillion.
