Geocache Description:

I Left my Cache in my Car!
Dude! Where's my car!?!?

Never should have parked here. Came back to find this!

Ok, this might be a tough one. It's in Spyglass Ridge Open Space, here in Lincoln City. The trails are primitive at best. Word to the wise: Mark your car location!!! I'm not kidding. the map makes it look like a warm and fuzzy stroll in the woods, but I'll tell ya, I got lost setting these caches and I have lots of woods experience. I had to back track a few times and was so glad i marked the car and knew i could just nav back to it anytime i needed. The trails are very poor here and parts of it all look the same.

OK here is the map. I printed one out for the trip and was so glad I did!

This is such a primitive location for being so near to town, park at the end of Spyglass drive, there is room for a few cars there and you will see the sign denoting it as a Lincoln City Open Space when you get there.

If you want a spoiler, this cache is actually marked on the map! Look for the Red Square. Don't expect this to help you miuch, however.When you are close, you will notice some fallen  trees, and kind of an open spot. Eventually you will spot what is left of my poor geomobile, may it RIP.

Container, weird container, you will know it when you see it, and its marked geocache. its about the size of a zippo lighter. Its log only and its Locked. You can't get in unless you know the secret. It took me a year to figure out this secret and I tried once a day.

Oh yeah, please bring a pen. You don't want to have to walk back to your OWN Car just to scream....Dude! WHERE"S MY CAR!!
