Not Troll FriendlyBy: NavySparksandTheMrs Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Very quiet in the park on a Sunday morning. A quick in and out. Thanks for keeping a cache going in this park!
Pastel Pets PuzzleBy: Bob & Elliecat Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
Nice idea for a puzzle cache! It was a bit busier back there than I thought it was going to be. TFTC.
Lord of the ViewsBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular
[8D]FTF![8D] 11:30a We'd been planning a hike in Windy Hill OSP for today, and I chanced to check the email this morning right before heading out. Whoa! Freshly approved cache! I'm really glad I checked; I would have been pretty irked to have gone to the Earthcache and missed the chance for another one right there. In any case, it was a beautiful, but hazy day. Moderate temperatures and a slight breeze made for a perfect hike. Thanks!
Somewhere Like a MonkeyBy: catomcat Difficulty: 3.0 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Micro
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. We had just finished our find on this cache when the owner came up the trail. Nice to meet you and GoGoJo! We took a bunch of pictures, but unfortunately they're all spoilers so they'll just have to stay in our private album. TFTC.
Even Better Valley ViewBy: GoGoJo Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 3.0 Container: Regular
We were out for a family hike and geocache outing today. The haze reduced the impact of the sweeping vistas, but we had a great time nonetheless. It was fun to pass a friend on the trail; what are the chances of that? Actually though, there were many people out enjoying the beautiful weather. Thanks for placing caches along this trail.
Teensy Valley ViewBy: GoGoJo Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Micro
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. Great day for a hike! This was an interesting spot to the kids due to the irrigation pipe discharging water just next to the cache. The sun was hot and everyone took the chance to fill up their cap with cool water and dump it over their head. Ahhhh! Refreshing. TFTC.
Evergreen Valley ViewBy: GoGoJo Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Regular
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. This was a nice spot to take a break, and a cleverly hidden cache. Thanks!
Valley View: Bites & StingsBy: GoGoJo Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Regular
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. Fortunately we made it through without any bites or stings, although we saw plenty of wildlife: rabbits, lizards, butterflies, bees, swallows, hawks, tadpoles, and a snake. We hoped to see a green heron, but alas, that wasn't in the cards. TFTC.
No Valley ViewBy: catomcat Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. We can report that the bees are doing just fine. There is a sign now warning people not to molest them. Again it was a natural spot to stop, and the frequent groups that passed us by had no idea why we were really stopped. Thanks for a nice big cache!
Valley ViewBy: catomcat Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Small
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. We didn't find the geotrail to the cache, and ended up having to pick stickers from our socks after we finished our hunt. Thanks for placing the caches along this trail.
Cattle ChuteBy: catomcat Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. I agree, this spot just cries out for a cache! Groups of hikers were passing by every few minutes, but no one could tell what we were really doing there. TFTC.
GroveBy: gashog Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Regular
We were out for a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today. Thanks for showing us an interesting spot.
Gazing Across a Plate BoundaryBy: joseph.kerski Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Not chosen
We were out today for a hike and cache hunt in Windy Hill OSP. It was a beautiful day, although our views were somewhat obscured by the smoke in the air from fires in Northern California. Living with the possibility of an earthquake is something we have to take for granted around here, and it was a good opportunity to point out the force of nature at work to the kids as we stood looking out over the San Andreas fault. Thanks for the earthcache!
14:20By: justbob Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Micro
We had planned a family hike and geocache hunt in Windy Hill OSP today, and travelled Old LaHonda Road twice shuttling the cars so that we would only have to hike downhill. [:I] Thanks for a diversion along the way! We must have passed at least a 100 bicylists on their way up to the top. Several of them looked like they would have liked to hang on to our bumper! TFTC!
Bridge ViewBy: Passport11 Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Without the coordinates, I wandered past GZ a bit further than I should have. While I was at the west end of the bridge (...it seems like the north end though...), I looked up to see jimbexleyspeed making the find. It was a near miss in the field, but helped me out. TFTC.
Snap Crackle PopBy: Passport11 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
I decided to hunt these two new caches, and wrote down the coordinates on a piece of paper, but forgot to bring it along. [:I] So, I had to rely on my memory of the cache page and my geo-sense. It took me a little longer than normal, but not too much. Thanks for showing me this spot. The tide was in, which made things interesting to look at. TFTC.
Hill LightsBy: Crew 71 Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Regular
I found a very exposed cache after just a slight detour from my homebound commute tonight. I moved it slightly so that it is under some living camouflage, and then applied the dead stuff liberally. Much better. The wind seemed like gale force right on top, with the result that I was not disturbed by other hikers at all. Great views, although the fog was really streaming in fast. TFTC.
Corner PocketBy: Passport11 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
I stopped by on my way home from work. A nice stiff breeze had the para-sails out in force. There was a couple on the bench nearby, but their eyes were on the water, and they paid me no mind. Thanks for taking me on a nice stroll along the bay!
We're Comin' InBy: Passport11 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
A quick find after work. I sat to let the breeze wash my cares away. It was interesting to watch two big jets approaching SFO at the same time. How do they hang in the air like that? It seems to defy gravity. TFTC!
Believe it or Not...The River Starts Here!!!By: tmkbk & olympicwannabe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. A quick find since GeoBandits had the cache in hand and all we had to do was walk up and sign the log. Nice to meet cachers in the field! TFTC.
Up the Down StaircaseBy: tmkbk & olympicwannabe Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. As others have mentioned, thank goodness for a hint. The widget was worthless under all that tree cover. TFTC.
Captain Blood'sBy: BootyBuddies Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. Green and lush here as the snow is not too distant. We like the historical marker caches! Thanks for pointing it out.
Freedom and FireworksBy: tmkbk & olympicwannabe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. Even though we had to wade through prickly bushes at first, things got easier as we closed on GZ. Thanks for the well stocked container. The kids quickly forgot the scratches on their legs in the rush to examine the loot. TFTC.
Kinney LakesBy: Isolino Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Small
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. Lots of people were out enjoying a day in the mountains, and this lake was definitely a draw. Thanks!
Hermit ValleyBy: Isolino Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. This is a beautiful trek through the mountains! TFTC.
Monitor CacheBy: Lil Devil Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. It would seem that this is a fairly remote location, but the number of finds on the cache page tells me otherwise. Thanks for marking our turn towards higher elevations!
Monitor the trees. (The 25,000th Cache!)By: Just a Short Walk Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Virtual
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. Fantastic country! This spot seemed to be the staging point for a rather large group of bicyclists who were struggling up to the top of the pass. We got a few quizzical looks from them, but were able to collect the required information easily. It's amazing that just 6 years after your cache was published, the one millionth cache page is right around the corner. TFTC.
RidgeTop ViewsBy: Just a Short Walk Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. This cache provided a convenient stopping point since the engine on the Jeep was getting a little hot. There were still plenty of wild flowers around, although it's clear that they will soon wilt under a merciless heat. Great views! Thanks.
Heenan LakeBy: Gary & Vicky Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
We're collecting counties and DeLorme pages while taking the scenic route home from the GBES rally. What a great place! Cool breezes, bright sunshine, and beautiful blue water. Thanks!
Team mjp303 found these caches as part of the 2008 GBES rally. Thanks all of the hard work to put this adventure together! The trail and views were spectacular.

Team mjp303 found this cache as part of the 2008 GBES rally. Thanks all of the hard work to put this adventure together! The trail and views were spectacular. Fortunately, another team came along and helped us find it. The widget was no help, and we were blind as bats. Getting tired, I suspect.
5th annual GBES Geocaching & Navigational RallyBy: GBESGeocachers Difficulty: 4.0 Terrain: 4.0 Container: Not chosen
[8D] What a fanstastic event! [8D] The course was beautiful, and I loved varied terrain we travelled through. The event was well organized, and everything ran like clock-work! The t-shirts, pictures and lunch were very nice touches as well. This was our 4th rally and it's always been a memorable experience, getting better every year. I loved the twist of the challenge caches. Definitely some evil hides that made us work! Not only did you have to get to them, but you had to find the cache too. Not a given by any means. Dinner was great. The coin was up to the usual high standards. So many details to take care of, and all executed really well by the GBES group! Thanks for hosting one of my favorite geocaching adventures!
