Geocache Description:

Salem before Jason Lee.

In what is currently downtown Salem, during the early 1800's, two Indian clans of the Calapoola tribe lived- the Chemeketa and the Chemawa.

There is a rather faded but interesting plaque near this cache that describes some of their early history.

I have absolutely no idea why the nearby rock is so carefully preserved. But it's a great place to sit and enjoy the beauty of the area.

Cache is wheelchair accessible.
