Cache Across Southern California 2024

Greetings space traveler! Are you ready to explore the galaxy with Star Tours? Find 6 CASC 2024 geocaches, stamp your passport, and turn it in at the SoCal Spring Fling mega event on May 4th, 2024 for a bounty. There are roughly 35 CASC geocaches to find, spread across all 10 SoCal counties. Cache across Southern California and explore the galaxy one world at a time!


Welcome to Tattoine!

A harsh desert world orbiting twin suns in the galaxy’s Outer Rim, Tatooine is a lawless place ruled by Hutt gangsters. Many settlers scratch out a living on moisture farms, while spaceport cities such as Mos Eisley and Mos Espa serve as home base for smugglers, criminals, and other rogues.  Although Tatooine may have languished in anonymity for some time, it became instantly famous when it was revealed to be the birthplace of not only Luke Skywalker, but his father as well.  If you seek heart pounding adventure, book your tour now!

This cache was hidden in preparation for SoCal Spring Fling

PLEASE BE GENTLE WITH THE CASE AND CRYPTEX WITHIN!  THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING THIS HIDE LAST A LONG TIME!  ALSO, SHOOT ME A MESSAGE IF LOCK BECOMES RUSTY OR STAMP RUNS OUT OF INK.  I LIVE CLOSE BY AND HAVE RELACEMENTS ON HANDsmiley

The padlock combo to open the case is 29-11-29.  Inside the case is a fragile cryptex that holds the Star Wars stamp needed for your passport.  To open, spin the dials to spell out the first name of Luke's father, who is also the builder of C3PO, and would later become Darth Vader.  The stamp and cryptex are not swag, but feel free to trade anything else in the case.
