Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Take the scenic drive to get off I-5 for a while, and discover yet another piece of old highway 99, which used to be the only road from North to South.
We were just driving by and noticed another section of old Highway 99 wall built many many years ago. Great spot for parking and a very nice view of Shasta River below!

The cache is a large vitamin C bottle. Getting a good GPS signal just wasn't in the cards today, so you will just have to look around for the cache when you arrive. If you get a good signal and coords that work more than once, please post them here. Stay AWAY from the two giant bushes of poison oak. The cache is about 15 feet from the one on the right. Also, you don't need to go out onto the rickety rocks.

Finally, my boyfriend's son found one! We took all four kids out and made a day of geocaching - what fun! This was our 6th out of 9 for the day. Found with the Journeyseekers.

We were in Yreka again visiting the Grandparents. Took a drive on Hwy 263 to Hwy 96 to Klamothon Road to Ager Road to Copco Road and back to I-5. Then to Oregon for a brief moment, turning around at exit 1, into Hilt and back to Oregon on a back road out of Hilt. It was a fun drive. The outing took us to ten caches over about two hours.

This was a very neat view. Looks like there is an old shack down below. Thanks.

~Wildcat~A really beautiful view but use caution on the road. This was easy to find and fun. It was our 1st cache so we were very excited! Took nothing but left 4 quarters.
God Bless!

~Crockett~ This was our first find. It was easy and fun. You can drive right to the location. Caution! The two bushes are Poison Oak! Currently the bushes have no leaves which help a person to identify Poison Oak. Follow the directions and you should find the cache.

Good Luck
