Cache Across Southern California 2026

Greetings gamers! Are you ready to explore video games through the ages? Find and locate one of the roughly 50 CASC geocaches across all 10 Southern California counties. As you find geocaches, you may stamp your passport to track your progress and turn it in at Signal's Island in San Diego to redeem your prize(s)!
Do not remove the stamp from the container, it is part of this geocache!
How do I use the CASC Passport?
Use the stamp in each CASC geocache and stamp any of the 25 small game tokens on the front page of the passport. At the bottom of each coin, write the GC code of the geocache that corresponds to the stamp provided. Then on the reverse side, circle or highlight the caches you found from the list. Doing these steps will increase efficiency and line management at Signal's Island.
CASC Prize Redemption
To qualify for prize redemption you must bring your completed passport to Signal's Island Goes M*A*S*H (GCBGC72) in San Diego on Saturday, October 3rd 2026. There are two award packages being offered: Silver and Gold. For the SILVER award, you must find at least 10 CASC geocaches in 3 counties. To qualify for the GOLD award, you must find at least 25 CASC geocaches in all 10 counties. Silver award includes a small geocaching goodie bag, but Gold award includes a complimentary CASC 2026 geocoin + the silver award prize. Only one prize package per qualifying account. Prize distribution will be on a first come first served basis.
Sharing your progress
Feel free to share and post your progress on the official CASC Facebook group. Important announcements will be periodically added here as well.

Helldivers

Helldivers is a single or multiplayer sci fi action game where you are an elite force fighting behind enemy lines against overwhelming alien enemies. Players work together as soldiers of Super Earth to complete dangerous missions, call in powerful stratagems, and survive chaotic battles. You can play solo or with a squad, but teamwork is the key to spreading Managed Democracy and making it out alive.

This cache was hidden in preparation for Signal's Island.

SUPER EARTH ARMED FORCES
STRATEGIC OPERATIONS COMMAND
CLASSIFICATION: PRIORITY ALPHA
OPERATION BRIEFING
OPERATION NAME: LIBERTY RAIN
ASSET DESIGNATION: LGM-233M “LIBERTY RAIN” MIRV SYSTEM
STATUS: LOST IN THEATRE
---
SITUATION
Automaton forces have established multiple fortified production sites within the operational zone. These installations are actively engaged in the mass production of VOX Engines, enabling long-range coordination and expansion of hostile forces.

Three primary Automaton Fortresses have been identified as central production hubs. These sites are protected by a network of decoy bases and hardened enemy emplacements positioned along key routes.
A prototype strategic asset, LGM-223M “Liberty Rain”, was deployed to neutralize these targets through simultaneous multi-vector strike capability. The system was lost during insertion and is now believed to be located behind enemy lines.
---
MISSION
Locate, recover, and activate the Liberty Rain prototype.
Once secured, initiate launch sequence and designate the following targets:
- Automaton Fortress Alpha
- Automaton Fortress Beta
- Automaton Fortress Gamma

Ensure all three targets are assigned prior to launch. Failure to do so will result in incomplete strike deployment.
---
INTELLIGENCE
Enemy logistics are supported by a single active supply convoy responsible for transporting raw materials to all three fortresses.

Convoy follows a fixed but contested route.
Route is defended by decoy bases and fortified emplacements.





These installations are designed to delay and misdirect advancing forces.
Tracking convoy movement will provide critical targeting data for fortress locations.
---
OBJECTIVES
1. Infiltrate enemy-controlled territory
2. Locate and secure Liberty Rain prototype
3. Activate system and establish operational control
4. Identify and track the active supply convoy
5. Extract targeting intelligence from convoy movement
6. Assign all three fortress targets
7. Execute launch sequence
---
EXECUTION NOTES
- Liberty Rain requires manual activation prior to target designation
- Convoy tracking is essential for accurate strike coordinates
- Expect escalating resistance after asset activation
- Strike must be executed before next VOX Engine production cycle completes
---
SYSTEM ACCESS AND TARGETING REQUIREMENT
Liberty Rain utilizes an integrated short-wavelength optical interface for both system authorization and strike designation.
- Required spectrum: 10 to 400 nanometers
- Outside standard visible range
- Interface elements, control markers, and targeting nodes are not detectable under normal observation
Activation Protocol:
- Command interface will remain locked until exposed to approved short-wavelength illumination
- Input markers will only appear under correct spectral conditions
Targeting Protocol:
- Strike coordinates must be designated using the same optical system
- Liberty Rain delivers three sequential strikes.
- Each strike is assigned using a coordinate pair entered in order.
- Valid targets will only resolve when illuminated within the required wavelength range
- Multiple target points must be identified prior to launch to enable full MIRV deployment
Failure to utilize correct illumination will result in incomplete system activation or invalid target locks.
Personnel are advised to deploy appropriate illumination equipment at all stages of operation.
---
COMMAND DIRECTIVE
Super Earth command authorizes full operational discretion.
Recovery and deployment of Liberty Rain is critical to halting Automaton expansion.
Secure the weapon. Deliver democracy.
---
FINAL REMARK
Liberty does not wait.
Liberty does not hesitate.
Liberty rains.
