Geocache Description:


Floyd River Campsite Rock

The original Freedom Rock, created by artist Ray “Bubba” Sorensen, was designed to honor veterans and provide a unique piece of art to each of Iowa’s 99 counties.  The original Freedom Rock in Adair County is repainted each May in time for Memorial Day. The other Freedom Rocks will not change. 

In addition to the original 99 Iowa counties, the Freedom Rock series has expanded to other unique locations. 

The Floyd River Campsite Rock is located in Sioux City’s, Chris Larsen Park Riverfront Development. The rock shows illustrations of various historical events in Lewis and Clark’s journey. Some of the events include the death of Charles Floyd, an idea of what the campsite might have looked like, Floyd’s suffering and a portrait of Floyd.

To log this virtual: Send me a message with the spelling of Floyd’s military rank as it is shown on the rock.

This is a mandatory requirement--if the correct answer is not received, your log will be deleted. 

DO NOT INCLUDE THE ANSWER IN YOUR LOG.
