Reeder's Gold is located among some of the oldest buildings in Helena, Montana. Please note: the garden area is private and the geocache can be accessed directly from the brick alley.
Pennsylvanian Louis Reeder built this quaint collection of tiny row house apartments that once housed miners and, later, single men of varied occupations. At one time some thirty-two one-room apartments spread along the narrow alley in various buildings. Less than half remain. The Montana Heritage Commission currently manages and maintains the brick and stone buildings for the State of Montana. Other landmarks included in this little area are the historic Morelli Bridge and the Stone House. The privately owned Yee Wau Cabin at the alley’s foot is the last remaining building associated with Helena’s Chinese settlement. Look for the National Register interpretive signs that tell more of the story of this territorial-period neighborhood.
Enjoy this beautiful area of Helena and enjoy some history along the way.**Replaced 07/17/13 with a smaller container in hopes that it doesn't get muggled.
