Geocache Description:

This is off the side of the road where the squib mill use to be located. Just park on the side on the road or a lot a little down the road the entrance is the hardest part.

Wilkesbarre, Pa., Feb. 26 1889. -- Eleven girls, varying in age from thirteen to twenty-two years, lost their lives in POWELL'S squibb factory at Plymouth. Powder squibs are manufactured at this place for the benefit of miners. The squib is a sort of fuse, which is inserted in the drilled hole in the coal. Girls are employed to make these squibs because their labor is cheaper.
This multi-cache is only 2 parts the first one is a small container and the last one is an ammo container there is a path to the last cache but its quicker to walk threw the little bit of brush.

For the lucky FTF there is a wallet with 50$ in it
