The Cache
After your Busy Day, come and relax on the short hike to the cache
in the Lower Arroyo Park. The closest parking is at the Pasadena
Roving Archers Range and Casting Club (N 34 08.425, W 118 10.038)
off of Arroyo Blvd, and it's 0.20 miles to the cache one way on
level ground. The cache is on the west side of the main water
channel off the beaten path, but no bushwhacking is required. The
posted coordinates for this cache (N 34 08.536, W 118 10.061) are a
good place to leave the streamside trail. You are looking for an
ammo can. Please rehide the cache well.
The Rules and Regulations
- This Unknown (Mystery) cache does NOT count
toward the six Cache Types needed for the Challenge.
- There are no date restrictions for this Challenge. Previous
finds DO count, so you may already qualify.
- All cache types past, present, and future ARE allowed
for this Challenge: Traditional, Multi-cache, Virtual, Letterbox
Hybrid, Unknown (Mystery), Webcam, Wherigo, Earthcache, Event,
CITO, Mega-Event, Project APE, Maze Adventure Exhibit, and
Locationless (Reverse)
- Bonus points for finding a benchmark on the same day, but
benchmarks do NOT count toward your six.
- If you haven't yet qualified, feel free to visit the cache,
pick up or drop off trackables, and post a note, but in order to
log a find, you must visit the cache and sign the log AFTER
you have fulfilled the requirements.
This Challenge is open to everyone. Feel free to contact me to
make wheelchair accessible arrangements.
Special thanks to PJPeters for
inspiration and permission to use this idea.
