Geocache Description:

FTF goes to Two Bison, w/Beluga, Nitroguy and Papagreg on February 20, 2008


THE HORSESHOE
Without a doubt, the most commonly encountered lucky charm in modern North America is the horseshoe and its representative models in the form of jewelry, wall hangings, and printed images.
Don't forget to find the lucky horseshoe; its right next to stage 1

I'm here to tell you that many soldiers during WWII would have died to have had more of these teeth blocking the way of a deadly Panzer tank. To them these little concrete appendages were their lucky horseshoe.
When I originally put this cache out I didn't know what this was all about. That is somewhat funny when you look at what I enjoy the most, military history. Thank you Two Bison for enlightening me and pointing me in the right direction. Even after retiring you continue to teach; its so natural to those who can actually do it.

Beware, depending on where you park there are few gates within a decent walking distance.
The barbwire fence (for the Spenceville Area) are there to keep vehicles out not people
(The POC is Tim Caldwell, the manager for the CA Fish and Game concerns for Spenceville (530) 624-8658).
You must practice non-destructive methods for crossing it though, perhaps a thick material to avoid any scrapes or scratches.
You can also find parking at 39 07.687N 121 18.513W.
