Candy Mountain Cache Multi-Cache
Rock Rabbit: The cache owner is not responding to issues with this listing, so I must regretfully archive it.
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is near the peak of Candy Mountain in West Richland,
Washington. At the cache you can see West Richland, the two bridges
between Pasco and Kennewick, the Energy Northwest reactor on the
Hanford reservation, and the Blue mountains over towards Walla
Walla. On a very clear day you can even see Mount Hood to the west.
It's a great walk with a dog and will give you a good workout even
if you just walk up.
The listed location is for the first waypoint of this multicache.
The waypoint is a common item placed on a concrete pad. You should
park your vehicle next to it, either on the street or on the
surrounding gravel area.
On the first waypoint is an 8-digit REA number. (You'll understand
when you see the waypoint.) Fill in the digits in the spaces
provided below. Then, look up towards the peak of the mountain and
you'll see the next waypoint. Walk to it, and fill in the second
8-digit REA number below. Continue walking up the mountain. Halfway
from the second waypoint to the peak you'll walk near a survey
marker at N 46° 15.482' W 119° 21.782'. At the peak you'll
find the third waypoint; fill in its information below.

Good luck!
