One of Santa Barbara's hidden treasures...a beautiful place for a
walk.
This is a really pretty spot for walking, not far from Santa
Barbara's "Mesa" neighborhood. However, due to it's
inaccessibility, you could be a long-time Santa Barbara resident
and not even know that the place exists...unless you read the local
papers, that is. This area has an interesting history (see the
"hints" section below), and has recently been the subject of
controversy over its policy of allowing dogs to roam without
leashes. Special thanks to Shylock and Fiona for providing the
history of the area!
If you come by car, please be respectful of the locals when
finding a parking spot. There are several entrances to the area,
and some offer better opportunities for parking than others.
This spot is great for dogs and children, and once you've found
the area, finding the cache shouldn't be too challenging. I
recommend going on a clear day. Nearby, there are cliffs
overlooking the ocean that provide a nice view of the Channel
Islands and the Santa Barbara coastline. If it's clear enough, you
can look up the coast (westward) and see the clock tower at
UCSB.
The cache is a slightly cammoed Snapware box. Since the area is
heavily traveled, please make sure it's well concealed.
