Friday the 13th Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

jhhwild: I'm going to reluctantly archive this hide. The hiding spot is completely overgrown with poison oak. Also, there's a locked gate in the way.

Geocache Description:

It is Friday the 13th so I thought I might as well hide a cache even though today is considered by many to be an unlucky day.  According to Wikipedia 12 is considered a complete number in numerology while 13 is considered "irregular".  Friday has also been considered an "unlucky" day for quite a while possibly due to how Jesus was crucified on a Friday according to the Gospels.  The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia.

A regular sized container a short walk away from parking. Parking is available by the Churn Creek Greenway Trailhead nearby the cache "Calico" (GC4HPZG). Poison oak and thorny plants are present at the location but easily avoidable.  It may be difficult to reach for some so I upped the difficulty to a 2 because of that even though the hiding spot should be obvious once you get there. Contains a trackable geocoin for whoever is FTF to move along.  Good luck finding it...or shall I say bad luck?  hahaha.

Congratulations to 5inCalif4Geo for the FTF!
