Geocache Description:

This cache is located at Anzalduas Park. The park is open daily from 8:00am - 7:00pm. There is an entrance fee of $4.00 per vehicle on Saturday and Sunday. The park is very busy during weekends.

Just before the road makes a sharp bend to the left, you come upon a large fenced-in area with black and yellow posts, yellow ground plugs and signs that say "U.S. Government Property-Do Not Molest" ("molestar" is Spanish for "to disturb" or "to bother").  Many folks have asked what this spot is all about.

When flowing water passes over metal (as at the Dam), it builds up a huge electrical charge.  Not only is this dangerous to workers, it vastly increases corrosion in metals.  This site takes the electrical charge off the Dam and sends it into the ground.

The cache is just past this fenced in area.  It is an easy park and grab.

This cache has been placed with permission from park management.
