Geocache Description:

This is a regular hide in a historic place.
The terrain is flat, street level DO NOT GO DOWN THE WASH!!!
Be VERY VERY careful replacing and removing cache so IT does not go down into the wash either! You know the drill from the title.
Park with care and watch for muggles in nearby buildings.
Might want to park down the road for safty and walk up to site.

This cache is for The Bawb , my other half , who turns 50 this month!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! 50 more for you!!!
He has spent a lot of those years traveling on this very road.

Cache contents:
Cache has been replaced with small log only cache , bring pen/pencil .

The wooden parts of the terrain pre-date the Bawb by a few years as they were part of the 1938 Prado Dam relocation work for a little history of this area see: (visit link)

When the Bawb was young he traveled this road with his parents from Santa Ana to Big Bear or Hemet in a salmon pink Ford station wagon!
Later in his hoodlum days of street racing youth this spot was near the end of a marked off "midnight 1/4 mile".
Many days were spent across the tracks down the road riding motorcycles when you could ride your dirt bike from your own driveway to the dirt on city streets!

Then the commute down the 91 brought the Bawb back to the road just to escape the 91 for a little while.

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to The BAWB !
Please enjoy the cache as much as we have the road.
