Scripps Peir webcam
What you will need:
- A GPS receiver
- A friend at his/her computer with an internet connection.
- A mobile phone
How to find and claim this webcam cache:
Go to the coordinates of this cache.
The coordinates get you to the area of the cache. They are not exact coordinates telling you where to stand. You, with the help of your friend, need to "hunt" for the cache. Call a friend and have your friend go to this cache page or the webcam page. Let them guide you on where to stand for the best picture then...
Wave to the camera, holding your GPS receiver in the air or a sign with your geocaching name on it
- Please don't log it until you have your picture ready for upload.
- Extra points if you choose to do this one at night although to verify as a find we must be able to see you and the gps or the sign. Hhmmmm maybe a makeshift LiteBrite using a flashlight or something even more creative
Update 8/30/07: The webcam has yet moved again, with a view of the Ocean Mist cache.

Click through the links and you will get the tide charts, low tide is the easiest.
Update 8/27/14 The new webcam pans both beaches so you may need some patience or creative ideas.
update 2/9/15 Selfies okayed as long as the pier camera is in the background
The key is to have fun.
