Welcome to the “Spice and Herb Series”! The caches in this series are hidden along logging roads and will consist of 26 caches plus a bonus. Each cache will have a number written on the inside lid of the container and/or on the top of the cache log. You will need this information for the bonus cache.
The roads may not all connect so you may need to move your vehicle to complete the series.
The caches may help cachers with challenges such as “tantograms”, “A to Z caches” and capital letters.
Many of the caches use repurposed/camo’d spice containers!
Some of the cache containers have a pencil in them, but some were too small for a pencil…..so remember one of the essential “tools” is a pen or pencil!
Phone service was almost 100% when I placed the caches. If you have access to a GPS, recommend you bring it….just in case phone service is limited.
Obtaining coordinates in a couple of locations was challenging (but that's some of the fun of caching....using your geosenses!) Recommend you look at the hints. For some of the caches I've added a spoiler photo.
There were some mosquitoes. You might bring a set of small clippers (just in case the thorny bushes grow over the summer). Always watch out for poison oak and other nasty weeds!
This extra fancy California Orange zest is prized for its sweetness, flavor, and color. And it saves you the fuss of finding high-quality oranges and zesting them. It's perfect in biscotti, cheesecakes, marinades, and marmalades. Make sure to store this zest in an air-tight jar to preserve the fragrant essential oil
