The cache is accessible only on the following days and hours:
Monday-Thursday from Noon-8:00PM, Friday-INACCESIBLE, Saturday
10:00AM-4:00PM, and Sunday- INACCESIBLE. Please note that the
buildings hours are not the same as the hours that the cache is
accessible, please be respectful of these hours. Please do not
indicate what building you are visiting when posting your logs.
It should take 10-15 minutes from when you enter the building,
until you are holding the cache.
Print this page and take it with you. To print the page without
the logs, click the "Make this page print-fiendly" line above.
Like treasure maps of old, you will have to follow a series of
steps to locate the treasure you seek. You will need a 6 number, 3
letter access code to request the cache from someone in the
building. The cache was placed here with permission of the head
administrator. Some staff know of it and some don't, so please
don't stop them to ask for help. Cache is 7" X 1 1/2" X 4" brown
box. There is a FTF ribbon for the FTF, plus lots of other
items.
Enter the building, turn left after you pass some fish and go to
the lowest level. The only public room here has how many panes of
glass in the doors and windows combined - that is your first
number.
Go up one floor and go to the Redwood Forest. In front of you
are 3 bears, walk up to them. Look past these bears until you see
another bear, go there. To the right of that bear on the same
ridgeline is an animal. If it is a Bigfoot your second number is 3,
if it is a Mountain Goat - your second number is a 9.
Leave this room and head toward the fish again, on your right
will be a store with a green and white awning; enter this store and
go to the back. How many doors are there - that is your third
number.
Exit this store and walk across the hall, you will see 3 tall
display cases. Inside each are vertical black supports that the
shelf brackets fit into. How many of those supports are in all
three cases combined? That is your 4th number.
Find and enter the coffee shop, on the ceiling there are fire
sprinklers. Count how many there are, that is your 5th number.
For your final number, hike back to the Redwood Forest and
search for Banana Slugs on the walls and trees. How many did you
find? That is your last number.
Go to the highest floor in the building by the closest possible
route and go to the two tallest display cases. In one of the cases
is a small white label,affixed to something metal, with three
letters followed by the letters GC, ignore the GC and write down
the three letters that follow-those are the three letters you
need.
Go down one floor and determine where the work titled
"ENIAC" is kept. To figure out its location you will have to
search for it on one of the computers the building provides. Go to
where it is, or should be. Turn around and look up slightly. You
will see a square white sign with green letters, go where it tells
you to go. When you arrive, walk to the desks on the right and give
your paper with the access code written on it to the staff at the
counter and ask if you can look at this "book" for a few minutes.
They will get the cache for you. Move it quietly as contents will
shift while you are walking. Take the cache and make your exchange
discreetly in the same room-watch for muggles. Give the cache back
to the same person and explore the building further or go on with
your day.
