Description EN

At the coordinates you will find what remains of a town that was built to capatilize on the Potomac canal.  The canal failed nearly two centuries ago and this town folded shortly after.

In order to claim a find on this cache, e-mail the answers to the following questions:

1. When was the town founded?

2. In addition to a forge, gristmill, and storage buildings; of what did this town once boast?

In addition, in order to log a find, you need to have physically visited this cache's location. In other words, please no armchair logging.

There is a $5 fee per vehicle to access Great Falls Park.
