Geocache Description:

A traditional cache in
Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park.


The cache is not in the main park – look in the annex off Felton Empire Road. Recommended Parking is near N37 2.984 W122 4.993


Cache is hidden within several feet of trail – remember to minimize the signs of your passing!


50sumtin had 4801 finds and 231 hides. 50sumtin only logged one of the Peace Love & Happiness caches. But that is not why I will remember him. I will remember because of the 46 caches he hid which I later logged. Some were not so remarkable - for example 35mm film canisters around Elkhorn Slough. Others were very frustrating. I would leave with a DNF only to go back another day and find it. Sometimes I would say “Duh” and smile at the trick which had been played upon me. These are the things which I will remember about 50sumtin.


There was formerly a shiny token with a “Peace, Love & Happiness” theme which could be had as a small reward for finding a cache in this series. The custom-made tokens may still be found in “Peace, Love & Happiness” caches from time to time. If you find a cache which has more than one of the collectible tokens then kindly take only one! The tokens are meant as a souvenir for folks who have made at least a short trek to find a “Peace, Love & Happiness“ cache.


You are looking for something similar to my “signature” containers hidden very near the trail. No need to bushwhack!
