Geocache Description:


Atoz Tres!

 

This cache is part of The Atoz Sequence series.  Click here for more information.

 

This is a classic hiking multi-cache.  A rare breed.

 

Park in the lower Ecola parking area and locate the trail to Crescent Beach near the restrooms.

 

Stage One of three (Tres!) is at the posted coordinates and will provide you with the location of Stage Two.  The second stage contains the coordinates of the final cache. 

 

Hints for all three stages are included and will likely be needed due to typically vague GPS reception in the forest.

 

No bushwhacking needed!  Stages One and Two can be reached from the trail.  For the final, don't leave the trail until you get a reading of 30 to 50 feet on an easy side trail, just after crossing a bridge.  Due to switchbacks, you may think you are close to the final long before it is time to start looking.

 

Bonus Cache!!

 

The final contains the coordinates of a bonus cache, Zota!.  The bonus cache also contains bonus clues for the series!

 

But, please use caution on the beach, as high tide could present some dangers.

 

Don't forget to make a note of the clues on the cache log.  You will need them to solve The Atoz Sequence!

 

Enjoy!
