Having some friends in Butte I seem to go
there often and found this “sleeper” historical spot. From
what I see there are no signs directing people to it and I
feel it is very well done. The local high school did most of
the work on it.
The City of Butte Montana and the areas
around have some very interesting history. The mining industry that
made Butte what it is also by nature brought with it other
industries of many kinds. This historical location represents just
one of many of these “industries” serving the “needs” of the
miners.
If you are just passing through on the
freeways this will make a great little rest stop. It is only about
15 minutes off I90 and is in the old historical district of Butte.
There are two other historical caches very nearby
“We Three Kings” (GCA0AF) and “First In
Butte” (GC9EB8).
To
find the micro cache – there are 8 dates on the historical marker.
In the order they appear on the marker fill in the
numbers.
18AB / 19CD / 19EF / 19GH / 19IJ / 19KL / 19MN /
19OP
The cords for the actual micro cache (bring your
own pen or pencil) are:
N 46*00.HED W 112*32.BLM
