Site of another gold mine in Star Lake area which locals helped us discover. We also enjoyed reading up on the history of gold mining as well as other mining in a local Whiteshell history book.

Ammo box contains FTF certificate - FTFinder may also take one item of choice. Also contains logbook, pencils, and many other items for trading. Please re-hide cache well.
If you know whether this is the original Sunbeam mine, please let us know in your log. If you have been involved in mining, please tell us your story. Enjoy the lovely hike, the beaver activity and scenery by the mine area (safely cemented shaft by now), but watch your step amongst the 'rusty leftovers'.

Some more interesting remnants on this side, but still not much left of the mine to see.

We found this one after a long walk. Ended up running into a local who told us a few stories and kept us entertained. Then off to find the cache and head to the next one. Thanks.

The skeeters almost made us abandon the search and run for the shelter of the car, but we had enough blood left to make the find first! tftc

Great hike on a gorgeous day with team rekal! Saw a beautiful stag in full velvet on the way in to this cache. The light was hitting it perfectly and we completely forgot about our camera safely tucked into our bag; shucks! He wasn't at all concerned about us. I think we got our yearly tick quota today with all of our hikes. We were still crawling with them when we got home. Lucky us!! TFTC!
