Cottonwood Creek Park in Encinitas is a wonderful new park for people of all ages. The park officially opened the day this cache was placed. This cache is off a trail that starts at the backside of the park. There is a short bank getting up to the cache.
A little history about this area: As a primary source of water and wood fuel in Encinitas in 1881, Cottonwood Creek was the single most important factor in the California Southern Railroad choosing Encinitas as a water stop. This railroad access and the availability of water and wood from the creek in turn made possible the format establishment of the town of Encinitas in 1883... the first town in San Diego County between National City and Oceanside to grow up along the railroad line. Be sure to note the historic and informational signs and tiles at this park. Have fun on the swings or Basketball hoops while you are there!
