Geocache Description:

As geocaching approaches the 10th anniversary of it's existence, any day now it will reach an incredible milestone...

1,000,000 ACTIVE CACHES WORLDWIDE!


This cache is nothing special, just another tupperware in the woods, (a small one at that). There is absolutely no reason for you to come and find this cache, since there are a million other caches you can hunt instead; big ones, small ones, multis or puzzles. You can find a cache at a lake, in a canyon, on a mountain, or by an ocean.

This particular cache offers nothing but a walk across a field, a trail through the woods, and a view of Salt Creek.

You are looking for a small Lock & Lock with a logbook, pencil, and small trinkets.

Be ever vigilant for muggles while going about your business at ground zero, it's a popular trail for dog walkers.

Have fun!

UPDATE: On 9/13/10 I checked on the cache, and the hidey hole had gotten smaller due to natural causes. I found the cache container crushed and wedged in place. With considerable effort I was able to extract the Lock & Lock, and it had survived with only minimal damage. But I couldn't put it back in any way and still conceal it well. Instead of hiding it somewhere else nearby, I opted to keep the same hiding spot and put a micro there. So that is the container you will now be looking for.

1/2/12:The cache host has cracked some more, broken and fallen to the ground. However the cache was still in place. I found a couple of select splinters from the fall and the cache is now hidden from view as well as ever, although it is still an easy find. After you walk under the grand archway (the result of another recent cataclysm) you are getting very close.

9/26/13: The cache, along with most of the host, left with this years flood. I placed a smaller one back in the same spot, though there's not much left of the host. You might say it's on its last legs (or should I say leg).
