Geocache Description:

Washington designated the Columbian mammoth as the official state fossil in 1998 after a four-year effort by students from Windsor Elementary School. These extinct prehistoric woolly elephants (Mammuthus columbi) roamed the North American continent during the Pleistocene age (last ice age). This cache is on city-owned property and was placed with permission from geocaching.com.
