Geocache Description:

All waypoints are in walking distance of one another.

This is a nice multi-cache that will take you on a stroll through Fremont to see some of the local artwork. The waypoints aren’t hard to find, but the micro cache at the end may be a bit challenging. It is an unusual little plastic container I got at Boeing Surplus -- this is a log only and bring your own pen/pencil.
