Lagoon View

By: Pinky B Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular

I came at about 5pm. Since the park was empty and the light was good, it was a quick find. Given the difficulty previous on-line logs indicated, and the fact that a muggle had signed the cache logbook stating that the cache had been found on the sidewalk, I'm wondering if it hasn't migrated a bit? Anyway, TFTC. mjp303

SpongeBob!

By: Neomack Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small

Proof once again that if you place it, geocachers will come. I had to dodge around a man walking the area and talking constantly on his cell phone. As I was leaving, I spotted him on the wrong side of the freeway fence(?!?), still talking. I thought I was conspicuous, but he was definitely diverting attention from me. Left a TB. TFTC.

Last time I came in the evening; this time in the morning. It's amazing what a different light will do when you're looking for the second time. Or...perhaps the new hide is just easier than the old? Or...is it that the container got larger? I suppose I'll never know. mjp303

Bay Area Multiple Hills - 2

By: Mhop Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 3.0 Container: Regular

The trail was damp, with just a few wet patches, and quite pleasant. Approach to the cache had been scoured out by what must have been quite a bit of water running off the hill during recent rains. This temporary drainage passed quite close the the cache, but it was safe and dry. Being up above the valley fog restricted the view a bit, but it was still very nice. Thanks for getting me out to this beautiful park. I SL and left a TB. mjp303

Logging Awesome Albert.

"It was a secret to me" Trailhead #2

By: boulter Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro

I stopped by on the way home from work, meeting up with RetroWayne. I had no trouble finding the cache, but was glad he was there to help me figure out how to put it back. TFTC. mjp303

Monkeying around McLaren

By: BuckyDef Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Regular

Sun at last!!! I parked in the wrong spot, and then enjoyed a bit of a trek through the park. Fun hide. All is well despite the recent bad weather. SL TTB. mjp303

NORTH MCLAREN

By: Kevin K Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular

The area is extremely muddy (No duh!), but the cache camo is holding up well. Thanks for showing me the area! mjp303

Moo!

By: BuckyDef Difficulty: 3.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro

I never did find the first way-point, but, in the end, the coordinates and distance were the only things that mattered. I had to delay my search of the final location because a couple of traffic cops were taking in the view during their lunch. Fortunately there were other caches close by [:D]. mjp303

Insert Witty Name Here

By: BuckyDef Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular

Attempting to get as close as possible in my car made this hike a bit adventurous. The steep section of the trail was made easier by the walking stick someone had left at the trailhead. I put it back where I found it for the next person. mjp303

David's Decoys

By: David ("T") of TBD & D Difficulty: 3.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Not chosen

I had to give up due to fading light and the curious glances of a couple parents at the playground, but not before finding something that looked like a cache, but wasn't. HahHah. mjp303
