Geocache Description:

Routinly hidden, but easy ATV/4WD access to site. Taylor Valley, N of Taylor Reservoir, FR742 to FR 584FWD, 2 creek crossings, .75mi

Along Tellurium Creek, the only access into the spectacular Collegiate Peaks Wilderness Area stands an old abandoned sawmill that served several productive silver, gold, and zinc mines in the area such as the Eclipse and Ruby. It's an easy ATV/4WD trip to the site but for a real treat, continue for another 5 miles to a alpine basin that takes your breath away in beauty. Ground level but covered, so snow would render inaccessable.
