Geocache Description:

This cache is to replace an older, archived cache - named "The Tank", placed by GlamisGuy99 & Family. It is a great overlook of the city of Yucca Valley, from one of its farthest Southern points. Congratulations to NF5 for FTF!

You can approach this cache via 2WD vehicle, but I would only do it while it is dry. Have some water with you, and in the summer - be sure to watch out for critters.

I like bringing back older caches. When I can't find one that has been DNF'd for a long while, or just not been sought out due to being SO FAR off the beaten path - I replace old archived caches. It is like a tribute cache.

Please don't just TFTC this cache. Take more than a second to post your log entry. It did take me more than a few seconds to prepare the container, gather some SWAG, prepare the logsheet and deliver the cache to its resting place. Please tell us about your journey.

Additionally, there is room for trackables and geocoins, so I included a trackables refresher, for TBs & geocoins.

-When you find this cache:
1. First, simply log that you found this cache and tell me where you are from!
2. If you take a TB or geocoin, go back into the listing and look on the right in the inventory. For every trackable item in the cache, a picture and name of it will appear on the right side in the cache listing.
3. Click on the trackable that you took, and enter the listing for it.
4. In the top right corner click the 'found it, log it' link.
5. Next, choose the location from the drop down menu where you found it, then enter the tracking number for the item in the box.
6. Lastly, write a little story about your find, just like a normal cache find.
7. SUBMIT! The trackable will fall off the inventory on this cache and will be listed under your name, thus is under your care until you drop it off elsewhere.
 
-When you drop off a trackable item in this cache, follow these steps:
1. Log like a normal cache.
2. Before clicking SUBMIT, there is an option to select any trackables under your care that you may have left at the cache.
3. Highlight the trackable you dropped off, then click SUBMIT! The item will come off your personal inventory and enter the inventory of this cache.

Some other things to consider with trackable is that some actually have a mission. Many are trying to make it to a certain destination or a certain country/state. Also, try not to hold trackables too long because they want to get out and explore the world!
