Geocache Description:


Do NOT go to the posted coordinates; Please read this cache page for more instructions

Congrats! You have found Disneyland's Biggest Hidden Mickey! This Hidden Mickey can only be seen from overhead because of its immense size. The classic Mickey Mouse face is created by a concrete border that surrounds Disneyland Dr. Scroll down for some more information on Hidden Mickeys.

When Walt Disney brought Disneyland to life, he focused immensely on detail. He wanted each and every guest to have their own unique experience at Disneyland. So, for that reason, Disneyland came up with the concept of Hidden Mickeys. A Hidden Mickey is an artistic representation of Mickey Mouse that was intentionally placed amid the architecture and design of the parks and resorts. It's usually a three-circle silhouette or outline of Mickey's head composed of one larger, central circle and two smaller circles for the ears. Hidden Mickeys can be right-side up, upside down, or sideways. However, Hidden Mickeys must be permanent. For example, Mickey-shaped food and shadows are not Hidden Mickeys. Since the first Hidden Mickey was incorporated into Disneyland in the 1980s, it has become another form of entertainment that makes Disneyland very unique. Today, there are approximately over a thousand Hidden Mickeys in Disneyland, however nobody knows the actual number because a list of all the Hidden Mickeys was never created.

Below are some examples of Hidden Mickeys
