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.

What a lovely location, high above the river. Nice easy find - although the Bill-half almost dropped his phone over the edge. And of course it would have been my fault !!
