Mike's Stone Dog House Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Christopher Pike: It is with deepest regret I have to archive this listing, as both the cache and the cache owner are no longer with us. Caches need to have an active owner, and sadly that's not the case here anymore. This will free up the area for someone in the community to replace and re-list it as a new cache, if they wish.

If there are any questions, I can be contacted directly through my profile page.

Geocache Description:

Near a great stone dog house and foundation of a home that was here before the 1972 Rapid City Flood.

This cache was adopted from Ted's Trekkers happy to keep this alive.

Park in the BOAT RAMP parking lot at 44.03.555N 103.17.686W

Original contents include:several pins,Christmas ornament,turtle,glass bugs,keychains,Precious Moments magnet,tiny doll,orca.

On June 9-10, 1972, extremely heavy rains over the eastern Black Hills of South Dakota produced record floods on Rapid Creek and other streams in the area. Nearly 15 inches of rain fell in about 6 hours near Nemo, and more than 10 inches of rain fell over an area of 60 square miles. According to the Red Cross, the resulting floods left 238 people dead and 3,057 people injured.

This area is now a flood protection zone - residence are no longer allowed this close to the creek.

You will need to bring your own writing stick as there isn't any room.
Please place the Cache back where it was found. Please note all DNFs so I know if we should adjust the description.
Please Cache Responsible.
Remember Cache In and Trash Out.

Happy Hunting to All.
