Geocache Description:


This is a regular cache consisting of a 1 pint camo'd cannister. It has a log book and room for toys. Watch for muggles nearby. Caching at night will make parking and muggles factor easier. Difficulty is enhanced by tree cover. Please replace cache carefully to prevent unintentional discovery. Keep it high enough to stay dry.

Senior Hall Interior Awaiting a full renovation, Senior Hall is not in frequent use. Most people on campus and most Berkeley residents have never seen the interior, which is one of early Berkeley’s rustic marvels.

Built almost entirely of redwood (including walls of logs with the bark still on them), with a massive clinker brick double fireplace and exposed roof trusses, the hall was designed by University Supervising Architect John Galen Howard, better known for his neo-classical structures including Sather Gate, the Campanile, and Doe Library.

The Order of the Golden Bear, a student, faculty, staff and alumni service organization founded in 1900, built Senior Hall and gave it to the University. The order is still active, remains the custodian organization for the building.
