Clamshell Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

tealeaf: Wow. This ditch has been dramatically spiffed up and cleared of garbage and debris including the namesake clamshell which was a concrete discard from a long ago project. I hate to lose a regular in an area full of micros but it's way too open now.

Geocache Description:

The Griegos Drain winds through this part of the north valley and is a favorite with walkers, dogs, bikers and the occasional ATV. It's easy terrain and an easy find.

I was walking south along this ditch and I thought this chunk of concrete looked like a clamshell. As I got closer, it looked like somebody left the lid up. As I walked past it and looked back, it looked like something rising up in a cheap sci-fi movie. So it's your call what it looks like to you but I went with my first impression. If you do a lot of my caches, you will have seen this type of container. It's got a logbook, pencil some swag and room for more.

If you want to make this a drive by, the ditch is drivable. If you are on Candelaria, pull in east of the ditch, the west side has a curb. If it's a nice day and your dog or child doesn't think a drive-by is fun, park on Headingly for a nice stroll.
