This cache has been archived.

DarkZen_EvilCowPie: Letting this one go due to the MOO-gle problem out here [;)] Also, the stairs have been removed and replaced with barb wire so this field area is now tough to access. Thanks to all who visited! Archiving.

Geocache Description:

At this Ancient Marvel you are looking for a 2-litre preform.

Having first discovered the "Stonehenge of Santa Cruz" near the UCSC campus, we scouted further and found spots resembling other ancient marvels, at least in OUR minds! We hope that you will search for all of the hides we planted here: a multi, a puzzle and some traditionals of varying sizes.



The Great Pyramid of Giza (also called the Pyramid of Khufu and the Pyramid of Cheops) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza Necropolis bordering what is now El Giza, Egypt, and in a historical irony is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and the only one that survives substantially intact. It is believed the pyramid was built as a tomb for fourth dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops in Greek) and constructed over a 20 year period concluding around 2551 BC. The Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years.

To access these caches, you can park in the West Remote Parking Lot #127 on weekends and holidays for free or there are meters in Parking Lot #162~~bring your quarters!
We planned this series so that the caches are all within walking distance......we hope that you will enjoy your journey back in time to the Ancient Marvels of Santa Cruz!!
