Geocache Description:

A cache near a benchmark.

Joani and I were walking along, looking for an alternate entry into the weird 'park' behind Pioneer High School. We didn't find an entrance but we did stumble onto this benchmark that we weren't aware of. Back when we were doing benchmarks, this one wasn't in the GC.com database. We had cleared this area out, which made our discovery of this one surprising. I made a quick search and found that it had already been found a couple of times. So, after I logged a find on it (the first benchmark I've logged in a long time), we hid a cache here.

5-29-05: Raised the difficult to 3 for this one, it's tough to spot.
8-7-05: Changed the container to a mint tin with a small log book and some small trade items.
