Geocache Description:

Yet another lame geocache in the "I Hate I-5 series"

Having recently returned from a long solo driving trip on I-5, stopping at countless rest areas along the way to search for old rubbermaid containers hidden in the bushes, I decided an "I Hate I-5" cache at the northern starting point of this hated highway would be in order.

The cache is located at the southbound rest area, but hard-core northbound cachers will find exits conveniently located nearby to double back and grab this cache without much delay.

You're looking for a camo-coloured plastic container about the size of a sandwich with some forest duff kicked over it. The cache should be fairly easy to find, even with travel-weary eyeballs. If you can't find it, the hint will take you right to it.

Update -- Apparently a letterbox has recently been hidden in the same vicinity as this geocache. If you find a hidden container with information inside referring to "Atlas Quest", "Score: Golf", or "Mariner Fan", you have found the letterbox, not the geocache. The actual geocache is very close by.
