Geocache Description:

There are two Casks, one holds the Skulls.

This location is called "McClure's Cabin".

Charly McClure was an old Gold Miner recluse that lived here during the 1970's & 1980's.

He built his cabin in front of an older structure from the Depression era. Still standing behind his cabin is the original rock bunkhouse for the gold miners, the chicken coop, tool shed and of course the Wooden Casks.

There are placer Gold Workings through out the area. Charlie was known to challange any prospectors or lookie looers that happened upon his property.

The cabin is now long abandoned and in disrepair. Charlie has passed on.

Two years ago several members of my Gold Mining Club found a full pound of Mercury in his cabin. (Mercury is often used in the recovery of fine gold).
