Geocache Description:

*********Congrats******One Lucky Penny & Two's A Pair***********FTF**********

You are looking for a medium size ammo box! This cache is located at the 1st mine I visited on my 1st trip to Panamint Valley. Parking coords: N 36 12.500 W 117 27.536. At the parking coords, there is a 50 gallon drum saying "Associated oil Co. 7-1922. If you are interested in the mine after finding the cache, head upstream, next to the dry creek with areas of a 3-4" old reveted water pipe, following the donkey path, to the switchback N 36 12.538/W 117 27.653. Follow the donkey path, you will come to a mine at N 36 12.541/W 117 27.583 Elevation 4,091 (I just discovered this trying to find a path to the upper main mine) continue on till a large black boulder deverts you to the left (2nd switchback). Stay on this path through several more switchbacks to the mine. Be careful of loose rocks and of course Rattlers! Enjoy this area and please practice CITO and preserve our heritage.
