We drive by this area a lot and since we started caching decided to add a cache along this stretch of road. Several years ago my children and I hiked this area and enjoyed the history and the memories. While driving to the cache area, you will notice on the hillside tailings from mininig operations to locate fossilized fish. The area you will be, is one of the first prospectored fossilized fish areas dating back to the 1890's. There is a lot of history in this area. A visitor center is located 2 1/2 miles down the paved road. This is not a fee area.
