Geocache Description:


Welcome to the crookedest street in the world

The famous Lombard Street

Fun to see, crazy to drive down, and also a hike if you walk up it. Iconic tourist stop in San Francisco

If you plan to drive:

If you want to drive down it, expect some delays most times of the day. Lombard street is a one-way street, from the top (West) to the bottom (East). Hyde Street is the cross street on the top. Parking can also be hard to find in the area, but if you go a few blocks away you can normally find available street parking, especially at the bottom of the street.

Cable Cars:

You can also take the famous San Francisco Cable Cars and stop at the top. The Powell/Hyde street line is the one you want.

To log this cache:

You will need to physically visit this location. I know, it seems dumb that I have to spell that out, but I do. While at this location take a picture of the street (either from the top looking down, or the bottom with the street rising behind you and post with your log.

The street picture must include either of the following:

1) Either yourself (aka,a selfie)

or

2) a piece of paper or some other object with your geocaching name clearly visible on it.

This is the 16th Virtual cache that I own and placed on my 16th Anniversary of Geocaching.
