Climb a Tree ... Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

retiredprof: In light of geocaching's recent changes to the publishing rules, I am archiving all 150 of my challenge caches. I am a retired psychology professor, not a computer programmer. I am simply unable to comply with the new geochecker rules. I am sad that I have to do this. For those who have already begun any of my challenge caches, please note that you can still log archived caches. If you have any problems with this decision, please contact the geocaching authorities so that your suggestions may be considered.

Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden near the Feather River, about 14 miles south of Yuba City. Park at the east end of Laurel Avenue, then hike south on the levee for about one-third mile. Upon reaching a red and gray gate, turn east and hike about a quarter mile on the grassy trail.

Some of the most challenging hides that I have found have been in trees. Now it's your turn. You must find 15 caches, each having the "tree" attribute on the cache page. And, in order to prove that you are a true Tarzan...you must have an average terrain rating of "4". No event caches or locationless caches are allowed, and only two caches from a series. List your qualifying cache-finds as shown below. And, may you feel a pleasant breeze while in the trees...
