Logging operations in Alameda Park have destroyed the Elves former home(tree). They have moved to a new secluded home in Deshon Woods.

Use the parking coordinates and trailhead waypoint below for the easiest approach to the cache.

The Elves are a community of elfin creatures living in the Hollow Tree Bakery. Their chief spokesman is "Ernie the Elf." Other elves include Fryer Tuck, Zoot, J.J., Ma, Ernie's mother; Elmer, Baker in training; Buckets, who splashes fudge on cookies; Fast Eddie, the cookie and cracker wrapper; Sam, the peanut butter maker; Roger, the cookie jeweler; Doc, Zack, the fudge shop foreman; Flo, the Tree Accountant; Leonardo, the artist; and Professor, Edison, Larry and Art.

Ernie and his fellow elves were created in 1968 by a Chicago based advertising firm and since then have become pop culture icons.
