Geocache Description:




This location is simply a rest stop between the Severy Creek headwaters (Elk Park) and the North Fork French Creek headwaters. There were a few attempts at mining this area including Ghost Town Hollow, a tiny mining and lumber camp consisting of a half dozen rotting cabins. Just above the camp is the Cincinnati Mine which struck water, instead of gold, that currently feeds North Fork French Creek. At the coordinates, you will find an interesting piece of old mining equipment holding a small cache containing just a couple pens and a log.
