Geocache Description:

Should be an easy find. Coords have been updated to reflect the new spot away from any poison oak, about 25' from the original location.

Webb Canyon is the 5th and least well-known of the entrances to Almaden Quicksilver park, so this cache is here to introduce you to the entrance if you haven't been here before. The cache is not far past the entrance up the paved road (no bikes or horses, dogs must be on leash.) The real trails start a little way uphill past this cache. Geocachers of the Bay Area logo

There are no restrooms, water, or trachcans in the area. Parking is nearby on the street.

When I went to scout out this location one day after work, I startled several wild turkey who in turn spooked a nearby deer. When I later returned from my short hike in the park, I encountered a jackrabbit and three deer in the same area.

Cache is roughly 6x6x4" and the camera takes up a lot of space, so bring smaller trade items.

Initial contents:
- Logbook and pen
- Geonote
- Disposable camera (Now gone, pictures are listed above)
- 8 Ball keychain
- Several glow-in-the-dark zombies
- Geocaching hiking staff badge
- IBM bottle opener
