Welcome to The Power Trail to Bethlehem! This cache is an ammo can. These caches are placed on active logging roads. The road is not maintained in the winter time, so I would discourage attempting to drive during the snowy months, or too early into the spring. There is little to no cell service on this power trail. I did have spotty cell service from cache #31 to #40 on Telus' network.
Why is this cache so far away from the road compared to the others?! We ran out of space while placing this series. Since we placed the series in the spring, we accessed the road from both ends, due to the snow at higher elevations. Unfortunately, there wasn't much room for #30 on the road. I hope you enjoy the walk :)
As you progress in this power trail, you will be treated with views of Highland Valley Copper, and ending with the former Bethlehem Copper mine. Mining at Bethlehem Copper began in 1962. Most of the employees at the mine lived in Ashcroft, BC, since the town of Logan Lake did not yet exist! Bethlehem was the site of the first low grade, high volume open pit copper mine in western Canada. Three pits were developed - Huestis, Jersey/East Jersey and Iona. Assets of Bethlehem Copper were purchased by Cominco in December of 1981. Mining at Bethlehem finished in 1982.
This power trail consists of sixty caches, made of preform tubes, lock and lock containers, and ammo cans. They should be quick to find. If time permits, check out the two Gold Country caches; GC3P97H and GC1TQFD , to learn more about the mining history in the area.
Enjoy!
