Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates but is within 1 mile of that location Geocachers of the Bay Area logo

The cache is in a high traffic area. The thing that interested me is that the cache is located at something I have always found odd but easily dismissable. Something I passed by hundreds of times and never gave a thought to. It is a relic of the times.

*  The Year G8 got its name?  19AB

The cache is in a safe area. You do not have to do anything unsafe for this cache. If for some reason when you get to the cache area and think you have to do something unsafe, you are wrong. It will probably be hard to be nonchalant most times of the day and evening.
