Geocache Description:


This is 1 of 3 starting points for the Mysteries of the Mohave Scavenger hunt. Start at any of the three START HERE events between 9am-10am. For your convenience, you should pick the START HERE event that is closest to your home location or first in line with your direction of travel towards the heart of the triangles (Kramer's Junction). You'll be assigned the same set of search areas and mysteries to uncover nomatter which START HERE event you decide to attend and you may only log an attendance on one START HERE event. Each party will randomly be given a place to start near their start events so that there are no cache mobs out the gate!

There are 6 segments possible to complete. It is not likely anyone can safely and sanely complete all 6 before the finishing time at 5 PM. That of course leaves more mysteries for you to uncover later at your own pace for your own interest in those oddities you have yet to visit for yourself...

This START HERE event is located by I-15 off Hwy 395 at the Hesperia Park-N-Ride. The other two START HERE events are at locations to the north-west near Mojave and to the north-east in Barstow.

Come on down (or up as it may be) for a free continental breakfast, to put your name on this log for your first event cache for the day, and to be assigned your tasks for the rest of the day. The early birds definitely won't be getting mere worms... :)

Directions and breakfast will start promptly at 9AM and will be available only until 10AM. After that, if you need the directions to play, you'll have to read the directions posted online to this page.

Please look for the main geocache event to the North-West at Red Rock State Park for the overall picture of what's going on on this date and for details about the scavenger hunt, important times, and points, etc.

For those brainiacs who are studying the giant triangles on the map trying to scheme if it might be advantageous to start at one point or another that isn't necessarily close to you, we will say up front, that it is not. Although those starting here may have a few more miles to travel and a harder time trying to do all segments in time (which we said you can't do anyways), we have built in some compensation for this. Trust us, there is no clear advantage to either starting point. Just pick the one closer to your home base.
