Geocache Description:

Easy approach is by car then sidewalk on foot. Take care of the no-parking signs on the north side of the street. All the neighbors know about this site, so don't worry about being seen making your access. Yeah it's a residential hide and steve9246 is the owner, but don't be shy, your visit helps our two dogs get daily exercise!

REBUILT September 23, 2023.   Pirates attacked in July 2023... and WON.   Pulled the box clean off the mount. Tore up the wood mount and hinges were pulled loose. FYI, you were on VIDEO for the entire event.

Named after "Shasta" our Boarder Collie back in 2006. Sadly, Shasta is gone now. We now have a Sheltie (miniature collie) named Mocha and a Corgi named Elsa. The girls love the sound of their own voices. To spare the neighbors from an all day serenade (Bark Bark BARK!!) they stay mainly in the back yard. They may peek at you thru the front window of the house, or from behind the white gate on the right side of the house. You cant miss them as they will let you know where they are (Bark Bark). ***DUE TO UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS (Grammer school up the street!) A COMBINATION LOCK NOW SECURES THIS HIDE**** ***LOCK COMBINATION IS -4-4-6- THE LAST THREE NUMBERS OF THE GPS LOCATION OF THIS HIDE*** ***DIAL THE COMBO IN UNDER THE "ACE" LOGO, THEN PUSH THE SIDE BUTTON TO POP THE LOCK OPEN*** ***PLEASE CLOSE THE LOCK AROUND THE WIRE BAIL AND CIRCULAR LATCH HOLE, then; SPIN THE COMBO*** ***BRING A FLASHLIGHT AT NIGHT TO SEE & READ THE COMBO LOCK*** This cache site is for families with kids. It consists of a small size ammo box with log book and various small toys, gadgets, puzzles and the like for kids, or bigger kids to trade (think small; A hardball will fit, a softball will not). Great for fast and easy bug trading. This cache was styled after 'Kids Canyon' in Altadena Ca. It is totally urban with no Poison Oak to deal with. The cache can only be accessed from outside the fence and the neighbors like there privacy please. Out of respect for the kids, please limit trades and T/bugs to G-rated content only, Thanks.
