Geocache Description:

Bixby Road


named after Jotham Bixby, 1831 - 1917, noted as the Father of Long Beach

here some History

Jotham Bixby started buying land on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in the 1870s. On September 25, 1882, Jotham acquired over 17,000 acres of Rancho Los Palos Verdes, which was half of the original land grant given to Jose Delores Sepulveda. This land was awarded to Bixby as a result of a Superior Court Decree order ordering the foreclosure of the property owned by the Sepulveda heirs. Bixby used the rolling hills of this acreage to graze his cattle.

 

the Cache is, of course, on Bixby Road, near a house where I was raised. I now live in Nuernberg, Germany. A city in Northern Bavaria with a population of approx 500,000

so... ready for some Translating??? O.K., the cache can be found at:

Nord Drei Drei Grad Vier Neun Punkt Sechs Null Acht

and

West Eins Eins Acht Grad Eins Null Punkt Fuenf Null Sechs

Good Luck! or as if I'd say it, Viel Glück!
