Geocache Description:


The water that is flowing down this channel is the overflow from the old shaft number 3 which is now flooded. In the old days they had some sort of filtering system installed in town, but this is non functional for many years. The remains of this filtering attempt can be seen near the locomotive in the main street.

 

During the rainy season it could be challenge to drive in this area. Preferably you need a high clearance vehicle. In rainy weather you will need a 4x4. During the dry season you can do this with a normal vehicle but you need to take it slow. If in doubt please stop and walk to the cache. Keep your eyes open for kids and quad bikes and for any crazy drivers. During the rainy season you could find many off-roaders in the area testing their vehicles. Also keep an eye open for any snakes while you search for this one. During storms and excessive rain you need to stay away from this cache. The river is turning at this point. Water from the mine will flood this channel and overflow will occur.
