Geocache Description:

Cache je umistena na tzv. Kozi skale nad hladinou jezera Dalesicke prehrady.

V roce 1978 toto jezero zaplavilo udoli reky Jihlavy od Kramolina po kliharnu ve Vladislavi v delce 22 km a bylo zatopeno 10 mlynu a nespocet chat a trampskych osad. Primo pod vyhlidkou byval mlyn Jirkasuv s pilou, drive tez zvany Halouskuv. Za prvni republiky a po 2. svetove valce byli na mlyne Jirkasovi. V predvalecne dobe se ve mlyne mlelo zito a srotovalo, za valky byl cely mlyn prestaven a porizeny nove stroje, napr. turbina a valcove stolice, takze byl mlyn vybaven na mleti psenice i zita. Pri mlyne byvala jednolistova pila. Jirkasuv mlyn a pila byly jako soukrome v provozu do padesatych let, nasledne v roce 1970 byl mlyn zboren. Nade mlynem se zachovala stodola, ktera stoji u cesty na protejsim brehu pod mohutnou lipou, a splav, ktery je videt pri nizsi hladine vody v prehrade. Autem se da ke kesce priblizit po polni ceste z Konesina na vzdalenost asi 200 m. Pri hledani netreba splhat po skalach!!! Preji uspesny lov a krasne pokochani! :-)


EN:] The cache is placed on so called Goat’s Rock (Kozí skála) overlooking the waters of Dalešice dam. In 1978 this dam-lake inudated the valley of Jihlava river from Kramolín all the way to glue works in Vladislav in length of 22 km. 10 mills and countless cottages and tramping camps were flooded. Right under the view point there used to be the Jirkasa’s mill with a saw mill That used to be called Halouška’s, too. Around the World War II the family of Jirkasa’s lived here. In the times before WWII this mill was used for grinding rye and scrapping. During the war the whole mill was rebuilt and new machines like a turbine and a cogging mill were added, so the mill was equipped for grinding wheat and rye. There used to be a one-blade saw mill, too. The Jirkasa’s private mills were fully operational till the 50’s and later pulled down in 1970. A barn, which is situated by the road on the other bank under the great lime tree, and a weir, that is visible at a lower water level in the dam, passed on to these days. By car, taking a rural road from Konešín, you can approach the cache to the distance of about 200 m. There’s no need to climb any rocks!!! I wish you a successful chase and a beautiful taking delight! :-)
