Geocache Description:

North Side of San Elijo Lagoon, very flat and family oriented. Very nice views....

This is our first cache, and as such we kept it local to our area. We live in the Cardiff area, and since there is a cache on the south side of this "estuary", we wanted to put one on the north side. My daughter Jenika calls the area where we hid it the "cave" as in the summer the foliage forms a cave like area. We are quite excited to start this "sport" so we spared no expense (well not quite that)in setting up our caches.

This is a standard cache and following Tuna's lead we are using ammo boxes with GeoCache stickers on the side.

Contents:

  • Log Book w/ Pen
  • Bag of white wood golf tees
  • 24 Crayola Crayon pack
  • Emergency Poncho
  • Mini-Mini Hand warmer
  • Waterproof match case (minus the matches)
  • Bicycle Playing cards (new wrapped)
  • 2 Shout stain treatment wipes
  • Crest Travel value pack
  • Purell Hand sanitizer
  • Matchbox Egg
  • Mini Soap
  • Pack of Football cards (unopened)
We hope you enjoy where we put this cache, it's a very pleasant stroll and no bushwacking required. If you have to go wack a bush, you are heading in the wrong direction, while off the beaten path, it's still easily navigated.

Warning: This may be a popular area depending on the time of year, so be discreet. We will keep and eye on this one as we are not sure how the terrain will change through out the year.
