Geocache Description:

Monument Terrace is a recently refurbished 139-step ornate outdoor staircase is dedicated to the memory of the city’s wartime dead, from the Civil War to Vietnam. Rising from Church Street up to Court Street, it is Lynchburg’s most recognizable architectural feature and also a gathering place, often serving as the scene of patriotic rallies.

This is an urban micro, and my goal is to get you to spend more time looking at the sights in the area than looking for the cache. Also, I want for you to be able to find the container smoothly, without attracting undue attention. Look at the greenstone plaque with the cold soldiers, and sit down on the bench behind you.
