Geocache Description:

This cache will test your courage. This is not for the faint of heart. It is a 4 mile hike for 4 caches.

The start of this cache starts at the Madame Sherri parking lot. From there, take the Ann Stokes trail to Indian Pond. This cache is placed in the Mine on Mine Mountain approx. 25 feet in (you will not need a flashlight). You will need a rope. We (backwoodlessons and I) used a 50 foot rope and we had plenty to spare (there is a rope there but it is old and stops 5 feet from the bottom. There is a large tree to anchor to about 15 feet directly behind the mine entrance.

I have provided different waypoints for the hike. From the peak to the cache STAY ON THE TRAIL.
