Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

A bit of a challenge if you don't know the area, but otherwise an easy diversion.
Nothing too difficult about this cache, except maybe finding your way there if you're not familiar with the area. The cache itself is a smallish camo-painted tupperware box. Please make sure it's well-concealed since the area is heavily travelled.

A quick reminder: it's not necessary to enter anyone's backyard to find this cache. Beware: it's purposely a bit deceptive if you're approaching by car. Enjoy the hunt!

Initial contents:

  • emergency flasher
  • deodorant sample
  • dog chew
  • mini-slinky
  • pencil sharpener
  • fruit snack
  • conditioner sample
  • the ubiquitous logbook, pen, and geocaching explanation

Special note: Many people mistake California blackberry for poison oak because they look very similar. The easiest way to tell them apart is that blackberry has thorns. It may scratch you, but you won't get a rash! There's lots of blackberry in the neighborhood of the cache, but little or no poison oak.

This one was a pretty quick grab. Your hints took me right too it. Dropped in something extra for the trackable spider I need to rehide... TFTC

It would have been a little faster to go around if we had been riding our bikes. Thanks for the cache.

We had a nice walk along the path to this cache. Now back to Patterson so we can get out on the mesa. Thanks

Followed directions and found the cache but we expected to find others along the way. Wrong!! Had to double back to get to the mesa as there was too much water in the creek.
