Redmond Rain #2 - Bear Creek Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

RedmondRain: Archiving this cache and replacing it somewhat nearby. The new location and a different twist on the hide justify a whole new cache. This is where the cache was meant to be placed originally, but a nearby (since archived) cache nixed the preferred spot before.

Geocache Description:

Redmond rain may be cleaned in a stormwater treatment wetland, or may soak into the ground through the porous asphalt of this trail. You don't need to dig or walk in the treatment facility to find the cache.

Congrats to DrTusk, FTF!


Stormwater rushes off of the acres of parking nearby and makes a stop here before flowing into Bear Creek. This has the benefit of keeping these beautiful plants alive!

Find the openings through the fence and explore the "mowed grass trail" nearby to learn more about the stormwater facilities and the stream buffer you are enjoying. Take a peek at Bear Creek for signs of spawning salmon! A respite from the hustle and bustle of Redmond.

If you plan ahead and bring a bag, this is a good CITO opportunity. People around this trail seem to have trouble finding the trash cans.

If you drive here, you will find ample parking nearby that is meant for visitors to the local merchants. Stop by one of the stores while you are here.

Bring a pencil -- you won't find one here, and it will make the log easier to retrieve.
