Geocache Description:


If you come here at the top of the hour you can hear the chapel bells chime from Saint Mary's College across the street. The chapel tower was dedicated in 1928 and its bells have been ringing ever since. Might be a good way to tell time if you forgot your watch... This small cache is located along the 7.65 mile Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail. The trail was once used by mule trains to carry redwood from Oakland to Sacramento. These days you'll find plenty of joggers, dog walkers, cyclists, and casual hikers when the weather is nice. Park close by at the St. Mary's Road Staging Area or park and hike/bike about a mile from Moraga Commons. The hide as placed contains a log, pen, and toy animals. Tree cover might make the coords dance around a bit. After getting the smiley, replace the cache as found with some natural camo on top. Have fun and enjoy the rest of the trail. If you come at dusk, you might also hear the hooting of Great Horned Owls in the distance. Congrats teampipperice and rohrerboy for the Co-FTF!
