Geocache Description:

Plain View cache next to the (confirmed) World's Shortest.


But you wont want to be the World's Shortest to search here.

 

The once-nameless river, known as the "shortest river in the world" was listed in the Guinness World Records as the world's shortest river at 440 feet (130 m). This title was lost in 1989 when Guinness named the Roe River in Montana shortest. Attempting to reclaim the title, the people of Lincoln City submitted a new measurement to Guinness of about 120 feet (37 m) marked at "extreme high tide". Starting in 2006, the Guinness Book of World Records did not list a category for shortest river.

The river flows from Devils Lake, under U.S. Route 101 in Oregon, and into the Pacific Ocean, entirely within the city limits of Lincoln City. The D River State Recreation Site off Highway 101 is home to two of the world's largest kite festivals in the spring and fall.

This is a hidden in plain sight micro in the City's park beside the Worlds Shortest River, D River. (also the worlds shortest river name!)

Something just looks out of place here, on a (rare) sunny day, it sparkles and shines!

Hopefully you have non-short friends, or are good at teamwork.
