Geocache Description:

While searching for this cache you should take the time to appreciate the views and sights to be had from the area. From this vista you can see Salina, New Cambria, Solomon and a nice stretch of the Saline River Valley.

The coordinates listed above are not to the cache, but to a hilltop area with more information about the property. Please take time to check out the information. It might also aid you in getting the information you will need to find the container!

When you arrive you will be greeted by an unusual butterfly & gate like no other.


When you see it you have found the parking spot! Make sure your vehicle does not hang out into the roadway when you park.

The property is covered with grassroots art that represents the history of the area. One of the most interesting things about the area is the remains of a Pioneer Dugout here that is thought to be the first permanant residence in Saline County.

The cache can be found by using the "art exhibits" to fill in the blanks in the following coordinates.

The exhibits are scattered along a nature trail winding through the area and each are individually numbered.

When searching for the container you will want to approach it carefully as there are thorns on some of the trees. If you pick the upper route you can avoid them for the most part.

A canadian geocoin was also placed into the cache along with 2 traditional travel bugs.

Happy hunting!
