Hermit Island Treasure





The Wilson Cache


Loading the boat for a day of diving. There
is something to be said about benign weightless the
gear is heavy.










Bill Wilson decided to leave society and people behind to make the move to remote Hermit Island, he carried with him nearly $100,000 in gold and silver coin. It was to be in the under water sea caves. We dove the caves finding a car under the water and lots of plates from his cabin. The cabin looks from old pictures on the internet that the lake calmed the cabin  still a fun dive and nice boat ride. It took little over a hour and a half but will worth the trip.
