I will delete any spoilers that indicate by words or pictures where the cache is located or a picture of the cache.
There were five mines that collapsed to form Miners Lake. When the mining stopped and the pumps, which kept the water out of the mines, were shut off and the tunnels were allowed to fill with water.
The mines were the Chandler (north and south), the Pioneer (A and B), the Zenith (A and B), the Sibley, and the Savoy.
The SAVOY MINE was started in 1908, by J.G. Brown, who quickly sold it to the Oliver Mining Company. The first shipment of iron ore was in 1899, and by the time it closed, in 1916, 2 million tons of ore had shipped from this mine.
