Fork in the Road ! ! !

By: C.A.K.E. UNIT Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular

We loved our tour of the Feather River Canyon. Thanks for helping us along our way! mjp303

Tarantula Junction

By: TimberToo Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Small

This was a fun little hike on a warm afternoon. Getting to the posted coordinates was the first challenge, but I knew the area and realized that close as the crow flies doesn't mean it's as close as you'd think! I followed the clues easily, even though I didn't really know what a 'Tarantula meadow' would look like. Make sure you pass through the area between the posted coordinates and the wooden bridge carefully as there is a large bee hive in a hollow branch right above the trail. Choosing the Loma Avenue entrance meant that I quite a haul back up the hill at the end. Pick your poison though, if you start at the Brittan entrance, you'll get your share of climbing both at the start and at the end. Thanks for a fun letterbox hybrid! mjp303

The Cuckoo's Nest

By: crawburr Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro

This was a really fun cache. I enjoyed the back story and checking out this unusual street. It appears to me that #11 is completely gone now. There is now a vacant dirt lot that is covered with trenches (perhaps for sprinkler pipe?). I suppose gentrification will continue; this area is just too prime to avoid it. Thanks for a neat cache! mjp303

California Mountain Bi-Ways - Rabbit Hole

By: The Mountain Riders Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small

Out for the GWS6 off-road cache run. This cache was definitely a group favorite! Very cool. I was using the wipers at this point, but little rain won't dampen our spirits! TFTC. mjp303

Embarcadero Bug Depot

By: OneAngryPuppy and Frivlas Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular

Fun little trek, nicely hidden. The rain was washing off the trees in tea colored drops, which caused some commotion among the little guys, since they assumed it was something else. [:O] We swapped TBs. Thanks. mjp303

Columba

By: bthomas Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro

The appropriateness of this cache for a Memorial Day outing in San Francisco was completely lost on us until we arrived on scene. A huge American flag filled the dome from ceiling to ground. We weren't sure if it's always there or specially placed on this weekend to honor those who have served our country. Thanks for providing us with the opportunity to explore a wonderful and unique place and to teach the kids more about love, loss, honor and respect in a very effective way. mjp303
