Two days ago, I discovered a great hiding place, and I had a container and log ready in my pocket. I checked the distance to every nearby cache on the map without seeing any conflicts. It wasn't until I tried to create a cache page for it that I realized I hadn't checked the puzzle final I had just left.
D'oh.
Update 2/15/26: Since the original hide area has been cut to the ground and covered in rocks, the cache has migrated a short distance to and area that still has tree cover.
Still a great chance for visitors from outside the Bay Area to grab one more California find when they stop to refuel their rental car on the way to SFO.
The name of the cache will not help you identify the location or style of the hide. It is the title of a book that someone handed me last week–one that I can not imagine fitting into one of my library puzzles. The phrase has been stuck in my brain for days now; if I can transplant it to yours I may be able to forget about it.
You may want to bring a tall friend.
