Geocache Description:

I loved it in the Road runner show when they gave stupid fake Latin names to Willy E. Coyote Like "Coyotecus Stupidous". So, I decided to do the same with my cache.
Please be careful to put the container back together tightly and exactly as you find it. Use the black indexing marks. Bring your own Pencil!

Actually the Sequoia is a genus in the cypress family Cupressaceae (Taxaceae or Taxodiaceae by others), containing the single living species Sequoia sempervirens. Common names include Coast Redwood and California Redwood (it is one of three species of trees known as redwoods). It is an evergreen, long-lived, monoecious tree living for up to 2,000 years, and is commonly considered the tallest tree in the world, reaching up to 115.5 m (379.1 ft) in height and 7 m (23 ft) diameter at the base. It is thought to be named after the Cherokee Indian leader, Sequoyah, though this is uncertain.

The crown is conical, with horizontal to slightly drooping branches. The bark is very thick, up to 30 cm (12 in), and quite soft, fibrous with a bright red-brown when freshly exposed (hence the name 'redwood'), weathering darker.
