Used to come out to Hearst bridge bout every other day in the summer time as a kid. Cache was placed on leap day 2012 while out on a cycle ride, while it may have set for over a year to "stabilize" it is now up, running and ready to find. Please replace as found and there is little room inside for awesome micro swag :-) Hope you enjoy and Till Next Time~ CACHE HARD and CACHE ON You can discover the resident coin listed in this cache (which is on the cache) by visiting the coins trackable page and retrieving tracking number there.
