One of the things I've always enjoyed about geocaching is the fun, interesting, cool and quirky, places that it's shown me.
In 2004, the Mayor proclaimed the city of Wallace, Idaho to be the center of the universe (because it can’t be proven otherwise). Today, a manhole cover represents the exact spot of the Center of the Universe, and it is celebrated yearly by the citizens of Wallace.
In addition to being the Center of the Universe the entire town of Wallace is on the National Register of Historic places and is the home of, what was, the last stop light on I-90 before the freeway was completed from coast to coast.
To log this virtual:
Please take a picture of yourself at the location holding a personal item such as a trackable, a piece of paper with your username, or giving a, "thumbs up" with either the manhole cover or one of the blue signs in the background and post it with your online log.
Faces are NOT required.
There is NO need to message or email me with the photo just post it with your, "Found it" log.
