Geocache Description:


Elk Glen Lake - Golden Gate Park
Elk Glen Lake
Elk Glen Lake is located at the foot of the 25th Avenue entrance and Martin Luther King Drive, the lake has been a valuable duck habitat in the past. Its value declined during the recent drought, perhaps because the lake's water supply was frequently interrupted and the lake was sometimes reduced to little more than a puddle. Ring-neck, Ruddies, American Wigeons, Mallards, and Buffleheads can be expected here. Watch for a Belted Kingfisher which flies between here and other lakes in the area. A Red-breasted Sapsucker often winters near the fruit tree on the north shore of the lake. Look for warbler flocks in the eucalyptus just north of the lake. A sparrow and finch flock usually winters in the weed patch at the lake's east end. At dusk, a Great Horned Owl sometimes flies over the lake.

Cache container is a M258A1 Military Decontamination (Decon)Box.

This cache contains an irwinSports pathtag for FTF.
