Geocache Description:


The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens is set amidst 150 acres of breathtaking gardens. Three art galleries and a library showcase magnificent collections of paintings, sculptures, rare books, manuscripts, and decorative arts. The botanical collection features over 14,000 different species of plants. Read more about it at: (visit link)

We have found four sets of objects on the grounds. All are animals guarding entrances. We hope you enjoy finding them all. We also hope you take a several hours to see what The Huntington has to offer. It is an amazing place and you could go many times and still not see everything. THERE IS A FEE TO GET IN, but there is also one free day a month.

Email us what you find at these four locations. If you aren't sure what to call them, just give us your best shot.

The Coordinates for the cache are near the parking lot entrance. This is probably the most beautiful parking lot you have ever seen!
