Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of caches hidden in the Mt Carmel Conservancy.

Take the Rosehaugh turnoff in the vicinity of the Crocodile Country Inn - Nelspruit. The dirt road will lead you to the Mt Carmel Conservancy. The co-ords are taken from the road next to where the cache is hidden.

If you look alongside the road as you drive along, you will see a series of mine shafts from days gone by.

The cache is hidden at the biggest of all these mine shafts - we have not explored inside the mine shaft as it seems old and fragile inside (dangerous)- therefor the cache is hidden right at the entrance to the shaft. What is really interesting is seeing the supports they used to prevent the walls from collapsing.

Have a look at the listing for Mt Carmel - Broken but not Beaten for the interesting story leading up to this cache hide.
