Geocache Description:


This cache is placed at a beautiful quercus lobata, or valley oak. Quercus lobata are one of the tallest and longest-lived oak species. A valley oak can live up to 600 years! You can most easily identify a valley oak by its lobed leaves.

You're looking for a small, custom cache hanging just inside the canopy of the tree. Thanks to beerslayer2000 for the inner container! I hope I've done the camo justice. This tree appears to get a lot of visitors, so the cache is tucked into one of the bushiest parts of the canopy, on the side closest to the Mockingbird Hill parking lot. 

Almaden Quicksilver hours are 8:00am to sunset. Dogs on leash are welcome. Happy hunting!
