Geocache Description:


I noticed that I haven't hidden anything other than traditional type caches.  I thought of an idea for a mystery cache and was going to hide it here but I decided to make it another traditional cache instead.  I was worried my final coordinates weren't going to be accurate enough, also I want more cachers to go for this one and find it. Many cachers including myself don't attempt mystery caches very often.  My friend and I hid a mystery cache in town back in 03/14/2011 called "Ground Zero Redding" (GC2Q972) and it has only been found 6 times, if it were a traditional cache it probably would have been found at least 40 times by now, of course it is a pretty challenging puzzle that I probably wouldn't have been able to figure out if my friend hadn't explained it to me.

I might use my idea for the mystery cache some other time in a different area perhaps.  In the meantime enjoy this traditional hide located near some nice trails.  This is a good parking spot and starting area if you want to go for the other nearby caches that are along the trails.

Congratulations to tchas for the FTF!
