Geocache Description:


This cache is located off-road south of Interstate 8. Four wheel drive is recommended depending on your route. Be advised some paths to the cache are somewhat narrow and fun! But you will enjoy the hills out there! If your a geologist at heart, you will definitely love the variety of rocks and minerals spread out over the desert landscape. It will get hot out there in the summer months, please take water with you.

The contents of the cache include a disposable camera, please take a snaphot of yourself(s) and your ride! Other contents include lots of misc. items. We hope you have as much fun finding it as we did leaving the cache!

Feb.2006 Update: We have yet to go back and pick up the camera or change out the plastic tote for a new one. As you noticed we placed the cache up in Jan. 2003, and since then have added a new member to our family. After January 2003 it began to be difficult to go back as my wife was pregnant. Now our daughter (B'Elanna Montserrat) can ride in her car seat and would probably like going back to the spot with us. On a sad note, the cache was the Nickname of a good friend of my wife's, Phil Rickard who since has passed away.
