Flashlight Frenzy Multi-Cache
jon_crowe: It lasted a while. I'll archive it so that new caches can take over this park! Keep hunting!
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

The coords get you near the start of this multi-cache that is great
for all ages! Give yourselves at least an hour after sunset to
complete this multicache!
- This cache was adapted from
Caching the Night Away, near the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
- This is a multi-stage cache designed
to be found AT NIGHT!!! Make sure you bring a GOOD flashlight. A
little keychain penlight WON'T cut it! You need a flashlight that
can throw a good beam of light, not an LED or smaller light that is
good for close up brightness. Then- I suggest you bring extra
batteries. Several people have had flashlights die when only half
way through this multi!
I hate digging through wet bushes at night looking for caches, so I
decided that caching at night should be FUN!! Using reflective
trail markers on trees, poles and other objects, I have marked the
locations of the clues. A pen and notepad may be handy to jot down
your clues. The clues are little metal tags that are hidden simply
at first, more difficult as the multi progresses, until you find
the cache. The cache is big enough for small items, so bring an
item to trade. Overall the terrain is easy during the day, but may
prove more a little more challenging at night. Keep in mind that
sprinklers may come on, or that you may find yourself walking
through soggy spots!
NOTE: Park hours are posted- no parking inside the parking lot
after 10PM, and no parking on Manhattan Beach Blvd after 11PM. So-
I suggest you park at the end of Cranbrook Ave and walk South
across Manhattan Beach Blvd through the Pedestrian crosswalk, or
park south of Alondra Park on Redondo Beach Blvd. Please be
careful, cars often don't stop for pedestrians. Also- one more word
of caution, this park sometimes attracts homeless muggles at the
north end, please watch your kids! Back to the cache...
The first metal tag clue is visible from the posted coords with
your flashlight. These tags are found near two reflective markers.
Each clue will lead you to the next location to look for the
markers, then the next... etc. Finally, the cache is a regular size
rubbermaid container, good for flat items. Pay close attention to
the clues, write down all the info on the tags, bring your strong
flashlights, pen, paper and possibly a sweatshirt, and enjoy
caching at NIGHT!!! Please re-hide the cache as good as
possible!
