This cache is located at a historic site that is part of lost aviation history from nearly 100 years ago.
Most cars will be able to navigate during dry weather. As you head North toward superior take the very first left turn up the dirt road and head toward the cell tower. This is one cool cache. IMPORTANT: This site also contains a TRAFx traffic counter which should not be confused with the geocache site. Please do not disturb
In 1920 the United States Postal Service began transcontinental airmail service. Planes of this period tended to have open cockpits and few navigational instruments making night flying difficult withou a lighted path. So in 1923, intending to keep the primitive air fleet on course and the pilots safe, the the postal service constructed a series of concrete mail arrows, emergency landing strips and towers with lighted beacons. This is one of those arrows. The metal towers were mostly torn down during WW2 to salvage the steel for the war effort. For more information, look at the pictures I have posted at the link below. IMPORTANT: This site also contains a TRAFx traffic counter which should not be confused with the actual geocache. This counter is placed on the site to determine how many people visit the site on an annual basis to determine if additional facilities are needed.. Please be good representatives of the Geocaching community and do not disturb the counter site. Thanks.
