This is in Northern California near Yuba City. Three good prizes, on public land, WGS 84. Hint: Don't drink beer, it'll give you gas. Note: The above is the orignal text in the short description. The hint referred to a gas pipe which is no longer there.

This cache was the first one placed in Northern California. A few years later, the bridge over it's location was replaced. It is live again, and the coordinates reflect a move of about ten feet. The container is a piece of PVC pipe with end caps. Enjoy again!

WOW! Look at the date this cache was first placed! Sept. 2000! Now that's awhile ago for sure. The oldest cache in Northern California. Sure makes our "oldest cache" list. Nice easy find although a long drive to get here. Appreciate those who continue to care for these 'original' caches. Fun to update our statistics with this one.

Rving South for the Winter and stopped in Colusa for the night. Made a quick run East to pick up a few caches in new counties. Wow this is an old cache. Glad RVJN spotted it on the list as fills in another box on our matrix of finding at least 1 cache that was hidden in every month from the start of Geocaching. Nice quick grab and dash as its getting late. Thanks for putting the cache out and keeping it going all these years.

Received a note that the cache was MIA, and it was.
In it's place was a baggie with tobacco (I think), rolling papers, and a half-smoked cigarette.
Replaced the cache, and put it a little further in.

Spaced this one today. I thought it would have been easier to find based on the diff level but no good. Sent an email to SR for some help for the way back, hope it's still around.
