Grand Lake has one of the most beautiful libraries in Grand County and is not only a source for books, but also for movies, internet access, and community activities. ABSOLUTE Stealth is required in finding this geocache as it is out in the open in front of the library. Parking is available on the street in front of the library. Bring a pen to write in the log.


The following information is extracted from the Grand Lake Historical Society website.

In February of 1933 an article in the newspaper stated that the "Woman's Club of Lake will sponsor Library". "On December 13th, 1933, an article in the newspaper stated that the Grand Lake Woman's Club is glad to announce that its free public library is now open to the public at the home of Mrs Goldie Hawkins. Books may be exchanged every Thursday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. There were over 300 volumes of fiction and non-fiction for both adults and children."

The Juniper Women's Club, a junior club of the Grand Lake Women's Club first opened a library in January 1945 in a small room in the Community house used for town meetings. When the town council and the firemen decided to build an addition on to the firehouse in the winter of 1947, the Juniper Club sought and received permission to have an updtairs room for the library on the condition that they finished the room themselves. The library remained there for many years.

The Juniper Library in Grand Lake became a branch of the Grand County Library System in 1988. In May of 2006 the new Juniper Library, which you are standing in front of, was dedicated and opened to the public in Grand Lake.

Enjoyable day in beautiful high country - Thanks for the work on the caches - Almost a DNF - I've hidden a few of this type and they are easy ('cause I've done it?) Then one that's not mine, it's hard to find - Logic in there somewhere. ( Should have remembered how I hide mine of this type?)
