Walking Stick Returned to Owner after 60 Years in a Cave!
Imagine that you are worker in the late 1930's Civilian Conservation Corps working in a remote valley in Utah. You are also a curious sort and like to poke into some of those caves. You have an engraved walking stick that you manage to leave in a remote corner of an even more remote passage within a cavern.
