Placed near the the gateway and parking area for Wildcat Ridge Wildlife Management Area.
This cache was placed on the one year anniversary of Tiffany's Slaves first successful cache find.
When Tiffany's Chief Assistant and Head Slave first came to Wildcat Ridge WMA to hunt for several of the EXCELLENT caches found within the area, they happened to notice a number of Rock Piles near the parking lot which they recognized as tailings from iron mining. While examining them a bit more closely, they also saw the remenants of some large stone structures which were very interesting. Later, after some research, they discovered that this was the remains of the industrial complex first named "Upper Hibernia" and then named "Oreland" by Joseph Wharton. The largest building was Crusher # 11. These mines ceased operation in the early 20th century.
