Geocache Description:

The cache is easy to reach. It’s just off S-22. There are many ways to approach it. Four wheel drive isn’t necessary.

While camping in the desert this weekend we visited the nearby monument to Peg Leg Smith. After reading the plaque, we realized that his lost mine had to be nearby. After a short search, we found it! The cache is well hidden from sight. There’s room for small trade items only. We put in some small swag and a Where’s George dollar. Please hide it as well as you find it.

Note: We've been told the log is missing and will replace when we next visit the area. In the meantime, could the next cacher please leave a piece of paper for others to log. Thank you.
