A Show of Hands was inspired by the caches of another notorious Marin cacher. In fact, it is very similar in set-up, concept, and site of one of his recent placements in the same general area.
To place this handy cache I headed up a very narrow, very steep, trail starting at the cache The Common Cold (N38 04.811 W122 35.311) (also site of archived GC1F49). This trail takes you to the top of the waterfall, where I followed the gully uphill. Arriving at the top of the hill I picked up a fairly good path that led me to the eventual hiding place.
The placement is about 30-40 feet inside a thicket of eye popping, cloth tearing, backpack grabbing limbs. Look no further if you need a hand in finding this hide.
The flat plastic container, abt. 6”X6”, is handed to you on a platter. What more could you want? Coordinates determined from 8 satellites.
After placing this cache, rather than retracing my route, I decided to explore further and I ended up placing another cache. I then bushwhacked my way down to the main trail and then discovered what I think is probably an easier approach. Try going uphill from the Ad & Gloria Schwindt Trail marker at N38 04.868 W122 35.043 where you can pick up my other cache along the way.
