Geocache Description:


This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates

Complete the Al Tahoe History Hunt (Part 2) Adventure Lab first!

It can be found at  N 38° FG.HJK′ W 119° QR.STU′

 

Did you know the Lake Tahoe Historical Society has created some local Tahoe History Trail walking tours? There are currently two neighborhoods featured (with more, hopefully, still in development): Al Tahoe (right here!) and Lakeside Park (down by Stateline).  To figure out the location of this bonus cache, you'll need to take a walk around the Al Tahoe neighborhood and explore the Al Tahoe History Hunt created and curated by the Historical Society.  Keep an eye on your journal as you complete the Adventure Lab locations and when you complete the lab, you'll discover the location of another local gem! If you've got the time, stop in and treat yourself.

From the Lake Tahoe Historical Society website:

Scattered about historic Al Tahoe are blue, turquoise, and white signs. Find all ten of the signs and write their location site number next to the site clue below. Some site numbers are near private property. Please respect the owner's privacy. If you are driving, make sure to park your car legally off the road. The location site numbers are # WA-1 and # AT-1 through # AT-9.

Take your time and enjoy the hunt. Scan the QR codes with a smart phone to learn the significance of that location or return to the museum to purchase a printed guide. When you've found all the sites, fill out the information at the bottom of this sheet to claim a prize at the museum.

But why not claim a geocaching prize too?  Once you've walked the neighborhood and completed the Adventure Lab, you'll have a little insider information on where some locals love to spend their time (and sometimes money).  No need to step inside to grab the cache, but if you've got a moment... we highly recommend.
