Geocache Description:


This cache was originally going to be call Bah Humbug (Creek) 3 and was going to be put at the location where I found my very first geocache twenty years ago on 12/27/2002. That cache was was called Bah Humbug (Creek) GC2DDF and was hidden by glenn95630. That cache was archived in Nov 2004 and glenn95630 placed a new cache almost at the same spot called it Bah Humbug (Creek) 2 GCM24P which was my first FTF on Nov 13, 2004. The Bah Humbug (Creek) 2 was finally archived a year ago 12/22/2021. So I thought that would be a perfect spot for my 20th anniversary hide.

However getting to those two caches were always hard for people since there wasn't any close legal parking spots.It was about a 1/2 mile walk from my house to those caches so I never was bothered by that. I was going to give a parking location in my writeup for the Bah Humbug (Creek) 3 write up to help the people that aren't from the area.

So I headed out to hide the cache but as walked to old hiding spot I noticed a lot of homeless camps nearby so I was starting to second guess hiding it here. The final straw was the "No Trespassing Sign" that I spotted on my way back out right where the most logical access point to the area is location. So I went back and grabbed the cache and wondered where I was going to hide this. 

So decided to pick this spot which is half way between my house and the Bah Humbug (Creek) locations and which was also very close to the parking spot I was going to suggest so I kept the parking spot for reference.
