Oak Seed “Roy Chapman Andrews” Letterbox Hybrid

This cache has been archived.

Tissa1020 & Foxhound: After an almost exactly 6year run this cache is being archived.
THANK-YOU EVERYONE who visited it and the location it was housed in.
They were kind enough to keep an eye on it for us.
They even sent the container back to us.
After just a little over TEN years the location is closing its CARVED OAK TREE DOORS, "forever".
They will still be available online < http://www.acornnaturalists.com/ >
and as long as the location building is there - so will the Waymark - Doorways of the World -

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

At the posted coordinated you will find directions to the actual cache location.

PLEASE DO NOT TRAMPLE ANY VEGETATION!
Be Gentle with BOTH containers. The lid of the second is rather fragile and somewhat "decorative".

This is a “BUSINESS HOURS ONLY” cache!
DO NOT ATTEMPT ON SUNDAYS!
You can go on Sundays and look around the grounds – but no one will be there AND you might be caught on CAMERA!
Cache is NOT located at the posted coordinates. At the coordinates, you will find further instructions, however.
Read the clue and replace it in the container - Replace the container as you found it.
Go find the final cache location!




Hours of operation are:
MONDAY - SATURDAY: 10 - 5
You may want to spend many more than the "SEVEN MINUTES" that some cachers insist is "the Limit".
The grounds of this outstanding structure are landscaped entirely with beautiful natives, including oaks, sycamores, redwoods, and over one hundred other species including seasonal wildflowers.
Take time to enjoy and "smell the flowers". Oh, and check out the Waymark... Acorn Naturalists - Old Town Tustin CA - Doorways of the World on Waymarking.com

hmmm a puzzle? What is the name of the cache - or it is the PLACE you find yourself? We and a Geo-Dog named Mojave like the same cypher! "mojave" is NOT the key. And you thought we'd make the additional hints EASY?




Original Contents included some of the following:
Logbook, Stamp & Pad, Two Travel Bugs and a Traveling "the Fox & the Hound" Geocoin and various nature type swag.
CONGRATS to PACHOLIK who found the clues and solved the hidden ones within the cache page itself! He was awarded with a special certificate for FIRST TO FIND.
