This cache is in a paved parking area. Short walking distance. It is just a few miles from the Prehistoric Man and Hunt cache, that tells you more about the history of this area.
During World War ll, there were 10 American concentration camps used to incarcerate the 110,000 Americans of Japanese descent in coastal regions of our Pacific states.
The Minidoka Relocation Camp, also know as the Hunt Camp, held 10,000 Japanese American victims of war-time hysteria. The camp occupied 950 acres.
Those interned here lived in tar-paper barracks that had no insulation, running water, or interior walls & were heated by coal burning stoves.
Barbed wire, guard towers, armed guards & watch dogs secured the area.
Part of the guard house & the waiting area, used by visitors waiting to see their friends & family interned here, are still standing.
This site is now classified as a National Monument.
