San Diego County
Geocachers have an Adopt-A-Highway and it's that time of year
again to clean it .
WHEN: Saturday,
Oct 27 from 8:30am – 11:00am
WHERE: State Highway 78 between mile markers 84.5 and
86.2 in the beautiful Anza-Borrego Desert State Park near the
conurbation of Ocotillo Wells, CA.(population 150)
There will be a briefing at the posted coordinates. The briefing
will begin at 8:30am to get instructions, vests,
and bags, take a group photo, and to sign forms. We will then get
started and work until about 11:00 am or whenever
the job is complete. I will bring some water but I suggest you also
bring your own. You may find other items helpful such as long
pants, gloves, and sun screen.
