Tweak! Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Albus Dumbledore: After four years of fun times, we're taking our four Harry-Potter-themed caches (Nitwit, Blubber, Oddment, and Tweak) off of the Mt. Woodson geocaching circuit. It is our hope that the next generation of dedicated geocachers will relish the chance to pepper the mountain with new caches. Until we meet again, cheerio!

Geocache Description:


“Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!”
-Albus Dumbledore

This is the final cache in a series of four, all located just off the fire access road of Mt. Woodson. This cache is placed at the base of a boulder that offers what is arguably the best view on the mountain. So scramble up that rock next to you and if you see the survey mark, you’ll know you’re in the right place.

To get to this spectacular cache site, you have to leave the safety of the road behind and hike up a dirt trail. You can take the trail as you go up (at the last switchback facing towards the ocean – the cache will be about 400 feet away) or clamber down it once you’ve reached the peak (look for the start behind the large, concrete water tank next to the fence). Our advice: take the trail as you go up. It has some steep sections and loose dirt that make a descent difficult. Either way, it’s an adventure!
