Geocache Description:

Located in Fremont Older Open Space Preserve. About a 15 minute hike from the trail head. An easy hike with beautiful views of the South Bay.

The cache is hidden in a small plastic container and originally contained the following items:
  • Elephant toy from "Tarzan"
  • Disney Magic Towel
  • Back Street Boy figure from Burger King
  • CD Rom Game Suite, including Solitaire, Poker, Cribbage, and Bridge.
  • Microsoft interactive CD sampler
  • San Jose Housing key chain
  • NASA Apollo trading cards
  • Superball
  • Small Lego building kits
  • Halloween key chain
  • Burger King action figure
  • Fuji camera
  • Log book and pen
After finding the cache, hike to the top of the hill for a spectacular view. If you parked where we did, be sure to visit the Pet Cemetery that we accidentally discovered on the way back. You will find a small garden and headstones honoring departed pets with names like Gretel and Midnight. The coordinates of this bizarre discovery are: N 37 degree, 17.217' and W 122 degree, 03.483'
Here are pictures from the original camera, posted by a visitor to the cache.
