Geocache Description:


This cache is located on the "island" in the middle Nicasio Reservoir, a man-made lake created in 1961 when a number of farms were flooded. It was created as a source of drinking water (but has rarely ever been used for that purpose).

Park at N38 05.533 W122 44.680 and find your way around the island. When this cache was placed (late August), the water level was low enough that you can actually walk completely around the island by staying close to the water. It's about a 2 hour / 4 mile walk to go the whole way around. Hiking boots are recommended. I have no idea what it would be like to try following the edge of the water when the water levels are high.

As you go around the island you'll notice some large ugly houses that were apparently approved during the 1970s. They spoil an otherwise very rural setting. This cache has a view of a big brown monster house. See the monster house then slay the other monster to get to the cache.
