Geocache Description:

Walk the plank... if you dare.

.
The true goal of this geoocache is to bring you to the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge (see more info at: www.fws.gov/desfbay/). However, while you're there, why not have some caching fun?

Since you're not allowed to hide a cache inside the refuge, I set-up this 2-stage multicache. The first stage is at the posted coordinates in the refuge. There you will see two metal signs, one is red and the other is blue. You'll find a small 6-digit code printed at the upper-left corner of these signs:

Red: 37-ABCD
Blue: 37-EFGH

Use these codes to find the final, which is located less than a mile a way, just outside the refuge:

N 37 XB.CXB
W 122 H.X(F-1)(G-1)

The cache is a tethered small camoed bottle. Please be careful when removing it. There's room for small items only. I left a few Israeli coins for the first finders.

IMPORTANT: Reaching the stages of this cache requires considerable care, and should not be attempted by young children, people with vertigo, or during an earthquake. Please use common sense!
Oh ya, and don't forget to stop, and look around you at this beautiful wildlife refuge. Enjoy.
