THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE LISTED COORDINATES, JUST THE STARTING LOCATION FOR A SHORT FUN WALK.
Visit the Douglas Street Statues Tour
Whether visiting the Wichita area for a convention or just wanting to see the figures down Douglas Avenue, this cache is for you. A VERY easy and fun stroll up and down the downtown area in less than an hour, seeing most of the figurines and brass statues by the Wichita Beautification Project. Starting at Century II Convention Center, down to Broadway, crossing the street and then back to the Broadview Hotel. The final cache is not available because of the construction but send the coordinates to me and I will confirm and then you can log the find. All are easy finds in order, and wheelchair accessible, and kid friendly, except for the cache location. There is ALSO 9 other nice caches in this same area and one more within one more block. GC1FVXB-Feather Towers, GC1FVW1-Tripodal, GCQ615-360 Wichita WebCam, GC9F39-Wichita in a Nutshell, GC1HEGF-Paper Bank, GC1GAYA-I'm Watchin' You Wabbit, GC7B63-Can I Get Some Service Here?, GC1FVWN-Ky Derby Loser, GC1FVVG-Life is a Dance of Balance, GC1TPNB-Century II Cache.
