On the knolls above the town of Mammoth Lakes, quite near the burial site and memorial cache of a couple of cool cats.
This cache has a extra bonus. You can actually SEE the Hidden Dragon virtual cache from here! Look toward the pass to Convict Lake.

This was Cache #2 in my Offroad Adventure Cache Series. Each cache has a secret code that unlocks the coordinates to the bonus cache. (Now archived) They can all be done in one day (6 caches; 5 + a bonus cache) by an experienced motorcycle rider. Bragging rights is all you will receive. If you take up the challenge, you should start at O'dark thirty for best chance at completion unless you do it as a group and cache several simultaniously.
The cache is nicely stocked with all new stuff:
Log book, pen, and pencil.
An FTF medal.
Hishru Chinese Boading therapy balls. (Metal with chimes inside. Very neato.)
A Pacific Styles faux amber necklace.
A 6ft tape measure with level. (I got the exact item in my 1st cache trade.)
A 12 volt inspection lamp.
A large block of post-its.
A glass plum paperweight.
A Brain Testers game: Horse Race.
An emergency vehicle play set: Police.
Catch a bubble.
The Newcastle Bug TB.
AND THE SECRET CODE WRITTEN ON THE LID.
Plan your trades accordingly and post them to keep these caches interesting for others to make the effort.
TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES AS THIS IS AN UNBELIEVABLY SCENIC TOUR. The views are way more valuable than what's in the caches anyway.
