A sign in Greeley showing how far the North Pole is has residents slightly confused.

Easy to say, the North Pole is NOT a short distance from Greeley, but the sign on a light pole remains nonetheless.

The sign hangs on 51st behind Monfort Park at the golf course. You can see the sign below.

One Reddit user added to the mystery with a curious question... Is this sign in remembrance of a man with the last "Greely" who conducted 4 expeditions in search of the North Pole?

However, after extensive searching I couldn't find any correlation between the two. The expeditions were wild stories of failure, possible cannibalism and heroism.
