Redneck Riviera Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

GatoRx: This is a sad day for a famous (some may say infamous) Westside landmark. Redneck Riviera has been deemed a construction site, and now has tall chain link fence up all around its perimeter, with no trespassing signs all over the place, and is (supposedly) being monitored by closed circuit television. There has apparently been a lot of resistance, judging by the fences torn down from both the road and the river, but an institution has seemingly come to an end so someone with oodles of cash and no sense of history can build a house here. At least those of us who have made trips there still have memories of the place...

The cache's hiding spot was outside of the fence, but we didn't want cachers getting any trouble from construction crews, police, or future residents, so we pulled it tonight. Thanks to all who found this one, and had a chance to enjoy this great little spot way up the Ortega River.

Geocache Description:

You're hunting a good-size camoed Rubbermaid container hidden at what was once a popular swimming hole.

A few years ago, access to this area required either 4WD or a boat; but thanks to urban sprawl, you can follow a paved road to about 15 feet away. The road may not be on your GPS map, but there is one nonetheless - you just have to find it.The cache is hidden in a spot that should keep you out of view of anyone who has stopped for a swim, but please be careful hunting it, and watch for any muggles. The original contents are all at least somewhat related to the cache's name, and the folks that used to frequent this place on warm sunny weekends. There's also a MEFF prize, but be aware that we'll be expecting a photo of you wearing it, or at least wear it to the next event so we can all enjoy it. This cache is also the starting point for the Viagra Speedster travel bug.Good luck and happy hunting!
