Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden in the river bottoms south of Marysville, accessible from Broadway Road. Park at the south end of the gravel road (coordinates given below), and hike west on the well-marked quad trail for about a tenth of a mile. The cache is located about ten yards from this dirt track. And be sure to note the important logging requirements below.

We have found caches at the seashore, in the mountains, in the desert, and in the valleys. Your task is to find 20 caches, each with the word "valley" in the title, and each title starting with a different letter of the alphabet. Do not use plurals, compound words, locationless caches, or more than one cache from a series. List your cache-finds as shown below, and be sure to include six types (icons) of caches on your list.
