Geocache Description:

We adopted these from BLIG some time back. The Descriptions remain much as he wrote them, with some minor edits and updated information. D/T ratings have not changed, to be fair to earlier Finders, although some of these are much easier than they were. On the logsheet is a number, which is needed to find the Solar System Tour mystery cache.

Jupiter

Jupiter (a.k.a. Jove; Greek Zeus) was the King of the Gods, the ruler of Olympus and the patron of the Roman state. Zeus was the son of Cronus (Saturn).  

 

 

Orbit:    778,330,000 km (5.20 AU) from Sun
Diameter: 142,984 km
Mass:     1.900e27 kg

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and by far the largest, Jupiter has 63 known satellites, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto being the largest.

 
You are looking for a camo-painted pill bottle, about 50 feet south of the trail, with easy access, no bush-whacking, and minimal poison oak. As always, use caution when reaching in bushes and under rocks.
