Geocache Description:

This cache is located in the area around the Anderson Brother Mica Mill. We have ridden this area several times and were surprised that there was not a cache at this neat location, so now there is. KZL name comes from our 3 youngest cachers (Kash, Zach, Lauren) who helped gather up some goodies to put inside the cache. Check out the mill while you are there.

 

 


Anderson Mill:

The Anderson Mill was run by two brothers. At the start of World War II all of the mines and mills that were not essential to the war effort were ordered closed. Anderson Mill and the mines supplying it were allowed to continue. The mill was for obtaining muscovite mica. As part of the mining of the granite pegmatites other minerals were at times selectively hand cobbed and shipped. The mica produced was used as electrical and heat insulation as well as in joint compound and paint.
