Geocache Description:

“In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks. Climb the mountains and receive their good tidings”
John Muir

Enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the Sacramento Delta from the northern side of Mt. Diablo. On the route you could find eight other caches and view M.D’s seasonal water falls. This could be a big day but don’t loose track of your goal to find a Higher Place.

Park at: Regency Trail, the same as Regency Trailhead Cache. Hike up Donner Canyon Road, Middle Trail (stay on this single track trail up to the road).

Suggestions: Pack a lunch and spend some time at this lovely view location. Smell the air, listen to the birds, wind and be thankful for our earth. The mountain is very trash free but be that someone that picks up what ever is accidentally dropped. Trekking poles, water, you know the essentials.

Original Cache contents: Alexander Hamilton awaits the FTF, log book, pencil, wet naps, joggers key holder, mole skin, polisher rock marble, quick release key holder, 2AA batteries, Peace Dove pin, bear bell, VW stick pin.

Sign the log, and also take a unique numbered slip of paper, e-mail the number to me to verify your cache find. As with Mathgen's Mt Diablo Intersection just another way of verifying who really found the cache.
