Geocache Description:


This virtual cache is located in the heart of the Konza prairie in the Flint Hills. Getting to this virtual cache will require a ~3/4 mile hike down a well traversed path. Dogs and bicycles are not allowed on the trail.

The Konza Prairie Research Natural Area, sometimes called the bluestem prairie, provides a unique outdoor laboratory of native tallgrass prairie set aside for long-term research. The Konza Prairie encompasses approximately 8,616 acres of native bluestem prairie. As this park is a research area we were not 100% comfortable with leaving a physical cache. Therefore, we chose to make this a virtual find. This virtual cache is also placed with the understanding that we will give way in the event that an approvable physical cache is placed within .01 mile.



Before claiming this cache you must answer the following question:

The old iron well head has a large two digit number located near the spigot - What are those two digits?
