One of a series of caches recognizing figures from Pueblo's early days.

Juan Bautista de Anza was the Spanish Governor of New Mexico whose troops killed Cuerno Verde (Green Horn) in battle in 1779. Then, in 1787, de Anza attempted to relocate the Comanche to the village of San Carlos de los Jupes , but the settlement was soon abandoned after a member of the tribe died there.


Most of the information to create this series came from the following three books: Pueblo, an Illustrated History by Eleanor Fry & Ione Miller. 2001. Heritage Media Corp. Carlsbad, CA Pueblo, a Pictorial History by Joanne West Dodds. 1982. The Donning Company/Publishers. Norfolk, VA They All Came to Pueblo: a Social History by Joanne West Dodds. 1994. The Donning Company/Publishers. Virginia Beach, VA

Once we learned about the Hidden Creature Challenge we knew we would have to travel in order to complete the challenge. We simply did not have one hundred caches within 40 miles to be able to log.. Since we had not been in the Pueblo area for years we decided to cache our way to and then in the area.

Day one started cool as we left very early in the morning, then grew to a very hot day. We performed maintenance for numerous cache owners. We replaced wet and full logs as well as broken and incomplete containers. We also replaced complete caches that were missing and accumulating numerous DNF's. We also had DNF's of our own on caches that were recently found but did not replace those. Nice hide, SL

Thank you NanCycle for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
