Geocache Description:

Medium regular cache with space for trade items. This is the replacement for the other SG/ES #5 which was archived.

*******************************************************************

Sycamore Grove/ East Series (SG/ES) Sycamore Grove Park is a great park. Even though I live in Dublin, I like to come out here and hike. It is a Livermore Area Recreation and Park District (LARPD) run park.

You can park at either end. (Technically, it is two parks- Sycamore Grove/Veterans Park.) The parking fee is $5.00 currently and they enforce it.

The park is officially open from 7am to Sunset except for fall and winter (when it closes at 5:30 PM).

In the spring, there is an abundance of wildflowers here, including lush displays of California Golden Poppys. In the fall, the Sycamores put on a gorgeous display of fall colors.

Having found all of the current caches in the more accessible areas, I noticed last fall that there is a large area in the east end that could use some newer caches. So, I decided to take a break from caching to put out a series of caches in the east end. The closest parking is the east end parking lot near the entrance to Wente winery. This cache is near that parking area.

Please help keep this cache going. The logs indicated that it has moved or have been left open. It could be the animals, so please add camo as needed to keep this in place. Thank you. The park rangers are aware of this cache and have left their signature as well.
