Russell Sage's 'namesake'
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
Near our home turf - no fear of muggles across the street - just
the ones on the road!
As a bit of history, this cache is in a small town many northern
Illini do not know exists - even those who live in neighboring
cities! It is named for American financier Russell Sage - he was a
multi-millionaire who lived from 1816-1906. The cache sits across
the street from the building that at one time WAS the old Russell
Train Station. (It has been relocated, and turned into a
residence.) An amazing amount of people passed through its doors,
as there were at one time many business, and just north of this
location, an old Horse Track which you can still see traces of in
current Satellite photos. (Visit the gallery to see!) Should be an
easy find, this one is 'for fun' - not frustratingly difficult, and
no bushwhacking involved. Finding a place to 'park' is the most
difficult - I recommend a short stop with your hazard lights. If
there happens to be a Travel Bug present - take it along if you can
move it! We want to keep those TB's moving - no need for trading
TB's - just move them if you can!!
