Another Clear Creek Collectible-----PLEASE BE VERY VERY CAREFUL when retrieving and replace the same. It is on OMG road just a little above Idaho Springs. I will replace with a larger container when I find the appropriate one.
Also was called the Tin Goose. It was Henry Ford's contribution to aviation. There was 200 built from 1926 to 1933 and only 16 survived till 2006. Built for airlines but were used by several military Airforces. Byrd made the first flight over the South Pole in a tri-motor and it was the first plane to fly over the Canadian Rockies, As of 2008 there was one still flying tourists over the Grand Canyon

Great spot. There was only 1 item in the container and the 2 girls weren't sure how to split it. So a more experienced cacher gave them some swag to put in so the next group won't have the same dilemma. TFTC!
