Geocache Description:

This cache is a smallish metal can with a logbook and a pencil. I also put 3 Zuni bear beads in it.


At the end of Perry Lane, there are 3 roads. Take the middle one, or the 2nd one from the left. The cache is at a mine of some sort. I could not tell what they were mining here. The road is pretty rough, especially close to the cache. I recommend a quad or UTV, but a 4x4 small pickup should make it okay. Great view from the parking lot!

Congratulations to jandan60s for FTF!

Mining info: Romanèchite! A type of manganese ore. Also psilomelane.

It appears to be a closed mine and is now BLM land. It was in operation in the early 50's.

If you find any problem with my caches, please write a NOTE. If you just say something in your regular log, I probably will not see it. When I get 22 logs from a finder and they are all identical (copy/paste), I read about 3 and then delete the rest of them unseen. If you leave a note, I have filters to filter them out into their own folder so I will see them. Of course, any DNF will also filter out, so I will find them as well.
