Geocache Description:

This traditional micro cache is hidden in the Knickerbocker Area of the Auburn State Recreation Area along the Olmstead loop trail. Locally the area is known as the Cool Cache Land.

This cache is another one of those darn micros for which you'll have to bring your own pen or pencil. Initial and date the internal log then log your find or no find here on the net so I know how the cache is doing. The cache is not far off the Knickerbocker paved road that proceeds South/West from the Cool Fire Station parking lot located at N 38' 53.339, W 121' 01.041.

This area is a great area for hiking, bike riding, equestrian riding, and searching for all the local caches. Be safe and aware of the usual Sierra foothill hazards like poison oak, snakes, and ticks. The trail to the cache is an equestrian trail with a strait forward approach with clear GPS readings. You may have to forge a seasonal stream or two.

Rocky Squirrel

Once upon a time a happy squirrel named Rocky was scampering about the CCL collecting his acorns for the winter. He was checking out all the spots on the ground collecting what he could to place in his acorn cache which was secreted close by. While scampering around something fell from the sky and hit him square on the top of his head. As a result he was knocked out cold. Soon he awoke and decided to run straight to the CCL Emperor to tell him the sky was falling. He also told everyone with whom he came into contact that the sky was falling. Panic soon prevailed amongst the subjects of the CCL realm. High above in the sky was Buefford Buzzard who said I've been flying in the sky all day long and indeed it is not falling. Soon sanity was restored and Rocky, being finally convinced, went back to his business of collecting acorns for the winter. Rocky and all of his friends in the CCL realm lived happily ever after.

Please make your log entry here on the net interesting for others to read. It is permissible to embellish your posting but do not be overly verbose. A little bit of fabrication may add to the interest level too. Share your experience with the rest of us when we can't be there with you. Remember to be kind to mother nature while looking for the cache. Please do not damage the surrounding area and put everything back just the way it originally was.

Happy safe caching...
