Geocache Description:


The 31st of a series of caches planned to be hidden at or near the historic rural schoolhouses of Routt County (RCSH - Routt County School Houses).  See the first cache of this series (GC6QQ71) for a complete and updated list of the ones currently available - but this list will continue to grow as there were 96 schools which served Routt County neighborhoods from 1883 until 1960 when the rural districts consolidated.

The Upper Wolf Creek School was built in 1914 and lasted until about 1925, when the Lower Wolf Creek School was built.  It was part of the Morgan Bottom District #24 until 1919 when it became part of the Hayden District #2.  It was located at “the foot of Wolf Mountain” and the students were children of local ranchers and miners in the area.  The teacherage was moved to Hayden in 1947 as part of a residence on East Jefferson Ave
