Geocache Description:

ONT

This cache is conveniently located near the Ontario Airport. The purpose of the cache is to take or leave Travel Bugs to help them along their way.


 

Recently we took a trip to Salt Lake City and thought it would be nice to take a Travel Bug with us. We couldn’t find any near by with an objective that fit going to Utah so we activated our own (Slipper).

We think that there needs to be a place where travelers can pick up and finders can leave, Travel Bugs, giving them a better chance to reach their objectives. Thus: the Travel Bug Terminal. The cache is a 2 1/2 gallon Army surplus can buried with only the camouflaged lid showing. Please try not to remove the can itself from the ground, but only remove the lid. Also the contents will remain dry if the lid is replaced with the seal down. See picture below for original cache contents.

You may claim a find for this cache when you sign in the logbook. You do not have to leave or take anything. Of course: you can leave or take travel Bugs if you think you can help them achieve their objective.

We parked at N34Deg03.814 W117Deg35.073 which is near the corner of Turner Ave. and Guasti Rd. on the east side of Turner along the fence.

For information about the interesting town of Guasti and the church nearby go to : This site http://www.wemweb.com/cfh_publisher/articles/article_4.html

The cache is not too near the tracks but be aware the trains pass by here very fast and children and pets should be on a leash.

The reason the cache is here in this rather unattractive place is that it is only 1/3 of a mile from the Ontario Terminal steps. A passenger waiting for a flight could actually walk to the cache.
