Geocache Description:

Alternate Working Title: Bright Lights, Little City

Dingo and I were hiking in a corner of Briones that we hadn't visited in a couple of years. After picking up some new caches right around sunset - I looked on up the trail, and decided to see where it goes. I wanted to get to the nearest highpoint to enjoy the city lights of central Contra Costa County.

You've come this far, so follow the trail on up to the saddle, and then when you're about 100' from the cache, follow the arrow, using game trails the last few feet to the ridge and the view.

Cache is an ammo can with the following initial contents:
  • Stash Note, Logbook and Pens
  • Cache Camera (take your photo, note exposure number in log)
  • Cowabunga Stitch TB
  • Gotwake thermometer-compass #1244
  • Gotwake camo carabiner #2250
  • Roll of 35mm ASA 200 color film
  • Glass Flower
  • Tigger
  • Puzzle
  • Rainbow Glasses
  • Glow Stick
  • Spiro Designer Set

Should be an easy enough find: plenty of satellites, and coords were from multiple waypoints averaged over several minutes with an accuracy of < 10'.
