The above coordinates will take you to a cool little spot at South Carlsbad State Beach. Once there, use the information you find to answer the questions below and get the coordinates to the actual cache. Park along the highway, south of the jetty.
The cache container is a sandwich-sized plastic container with a cammo paint job. Just barely off a paved area--no need to step on any plants. (Also, please don't try to climb up the bluffs to get to it!)
NOTE: Be stealthy, and hide the cache container well when you leave, or it will get muggled like the last one!
Original contents include ocean-themed items; a shell lei, sand dollar, various other pretty shells, and FTF prize is a pair of sterling silver and freshwater pearl earrings (by Mrs CMonkey). Have fun!
The actual cache is at: N 33 MV.CTC, W 117 TY.AFC
