Native American Tribe series.Alchedoma
A former Yuman tribe which, according to Father Garcés, spoke the same language as the Yuma proper, and hence belonged to the same closely related Yuman division as the Yuma, Maricopa, and Mohave. As early as 1604-05 Juan de Onate found them in 8 rancherias (the northernmost with 2,000 people in 160 houses) below the mouth of the Gila on the Rio Colorado, but by 1762 (Rudo Ensayo, 130, 1894) they occupied the left bank of the Colorado between the Gila and Bill Williams fork, and by Garcés time (1776) their rancherias were scattered along the Colorado in Arizona and California, beginning about 38 m. below Bill Williams fork and extending the same distance downstream.

07/27/2018 By cajrrman I decided to head for the hills around Central City for some caching today. I made the find here at 10:10 am. Thanks for the cache!
2nd of 3 NAT's found today. I parked about 750 feet from this cache and walked down the rough road to the cache. It looked a little rougher than I wanted to take my vehicle.
