About This Item

Fishy Story

I was hatch in Ancient Lake Lahontan, but now it has broken into small bodies of water. You can see my big brothers in Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park, Berlin, Nevada, at N 38° 52.483 W 117° 35.333.
Ichthyosaurs (ICK-thee-o-soars) were prehistoric marine reptiles ranging in size from about two to over fifty feet in length. Ichthyosaur was the most highly specialized reptile for life in the ocean. Very fish-like in appearance and locomotion, they bore their young alive and had amazingly large eyes in relation to the rest of the body. These carnivorous reptiles ate free swimming mollusks such as ammonites, squid like creatures, and probably fish. Like all reptiles, Ichthyosaur was air breathing and resembles modern day cetaceans (whales and dolphins to which it is not related) in some of its characteristics

While visiting the Central Coast for our 28th Anniversary, we decided to do just one geocache before getting ready for dinner. The day had been absolutely beautiful and the sunset was looking like it would be spectacular. We knew this cache would be in the perfect place to see it (and at the same time check out the Elephant Seals basking below the cliffs). We can see why William Randolf Hearst built The Hearst Castle on this part of the coast. We have taken it with us south to the town of Simi Valley and hope to place it somewhere near here.
