Geocache Description:

Middle of nowhere but not quite park and grab.Replaced for 3rd time 02/25/2009

In 1916 David Fasken of Toronto had a dream. But by 1920 the dream was bankrupt and washed away. Remnants of the old roadbed can still be seen going through the brush. On a windy day listen for a ghostly whistle as they stopped to open pasture gates with a load of cattle and shot coyotes along the way.

The coordinates are where you PARK. Actual container is about 60 feet east-southeast and well camouflaged. There is quite a bit of traffic (holiday weekend) for the middle of nowhere so stealth skills are important to avoid muggles.

New FTF Prize is portrait of another long-dead President. Be first to see which one it was.
Initial contents include pen, logbook, and some other stuff. Be sure and have a poking stick or wear thick gloves and beware of West Texas critters.
