The cache is located in the Civic Center area.
Be sure to stop and read the historical marker near the cache which states:
"FIRST SITE OF EL PUEBLO DE SAN JOSE DE GUADALUPE
Within a year after the opening of the first overland route from Mexico to Alta California, Governor Felipe de Neve authorized the establishment of the first civil settlement in the state on lands including and surrounding the present Civic Center. Lieutenant Jose Joaquin Moraga, with 14 settlers and their families arrived in the Santa Clara Valley to found El Pueblo de San Jose de Guadalupe on November 29, 1777."
When California became a state in 1850, San Jose served as its first capital. San Jose is the 3d largest city in California, the 10th largest city in the US and is the county seat for the County of Santa Clara.
