Tunnel Mill was just that, In old mill. back in the 1800's
it produced Gold by diging a tunnel into the hillside. It's long gone now but the start of the tunnel is still there N39 02.131 W84 04.126 under the road. Going by your GPS to find where to park to find this cache will be kind of hard, So here is a quick waypoint to help you find the road N39 03.004 W84 04.127 The name of this road is Williamsburg Bantom road. You will drive down this no outlet road as it enters the park. You will find a large parking lot to your right to park in. The trail is a paved road that will go all the way down to the lake. The cache is on this road and on the hill side behind a rock. People in the area have heard of the Twin Bridges, This road you walk is that road that went to the bridges. There use to be a coffer dam to bring water into tunnel mill. They blew this dam up just before they started to flood the lake back in 1977. People came to see it like they did when they imploaded the UC Builded a few years ago. A 2.5 because of the hill at the end. It's not bad being on a road but it is a 22% grade. Make sure you check the area for other caches. At the end of this road, It turns into a dirt trail. If you are out for a hike today, You can keep on going, It comes out back on the road you came in the park on in about 2 miles. |
