Geocache Description:

ANOTHER REST STOP CACHE. THIS ONE IS STILL A SHORT HIKE, BUT DEFINITELY NOT FLAT! DO NOT STOP ON THE FREEWAY OR ON THE OFF-RAMP. THERE IS A TRAIL AT THE REST STOP!

Here is another *Rest Stop* cache for the returnee from Reno/Lake Tahoe, or anyone travelling I-80. The cache is only .15 mile from the parking area, but because of a steep climb and heavy tree cover limiting a solid set of coordinates I've given it a little higher rating. The cache container is a reformed plastic screw top jar that once held Biscotti, measuring 9" tall x 6" x 6". Once you are in the general area it will be relatively easy to spot.

When placed, this cache contained:

  • A Mini Flashlight,
  • A Bicycle Bell,
  • A Skeleton,
  • A Mini-Checkers Game,
  • A Balsa Wood Glider,
  • A Small Dinosaur,
  • A Packet of Flower Seeds,
  • A Packet of Lint Remover Sheets,
  • A Collapsable Cup,
  • A Bag of Balloons,
  • A Four Pack of AA Batteries,
  • A Bottle of Bubbles,
  • A Small Pack of BandAids,
  • Ivy Cleanse Packets,
  • A Few "Keep Tahoe Blue" Window Decals, and
  • Lip Balm!
Plus a GeoCaching Notice, Log Book, and Pens. Got some energy left after that Tahoe trip? You can expend it finding this cache. Have Fun!
