The cache is a very small container that contains only a
log. You must bring your own pen. Cache is very well
hidden.
NOTE: I will
delete
your log if you are too descriptive
and give away too much information about the

The railroad was instrumental in the development of
Monterey. The trains started running a regular schedule into
Monterey around 1880. The economy blossomed because of the railroad
as did the western United States wherever tracks were
laid.
Sardines a large mainstay of the local economy flourished
with the advent of the railroad as a means of shipping. The
last train departed Monterey in 1971. Today the tracks are
still visible in places, but have been replaced by a
pedestrian and bicycle path that stretches from Castroville
all the way to Lovers Point in Pacific Grove. The path is
approximately 20 miles long. It is very busy on the weekends
especially when the weather is nice.
