Geocache Description:

A trollish cache in a great Open Space Preserve

The Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Space Preserve is located on the western slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains overlooking Half Moon Bay. The preserve was established with a gift of $2 million from the Save-the-Redwoods League.

This is one of a couple of new caches to show people a section of this park they may not have seen before, while I had been in this park many times before I had always entered from Skyline and never made it down this far into the park. Luckily, I took a wrong turn on a trail a few weeks back and found what I consider to be the best section of this OSP.

The cache is a decon container, and upon placement contained the following items -


$10 REI Gift Card

New Silva Sportsmans Tool (Compass, Thermometer, Mg. Glass, Whistle)

New Emergency Whistle

New Bison Tube

Small Yellow Toy Car

Geekster Geektag #3

Logbook


There is no room for a pen so please bring your own, and please trade fairly so the next person to find the cache can enjoy finding something nice as well. The coords were taken with an EPE of 35', but should be more than adequate.

The hike to the cache while short in distance may be somewhat strenuous for some, please use your best judgement. Enjoy the cache and enjoy exploring a great section of the park !
