Solomons Family Cache

By: Team Forward Motion & King Solomon I Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular


Thanks for a cache just into the corner of another DeLorme page.


Almost Obsolete 3

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen


Lots of folks taking care of business nearby, and probably wondering why 4 guys were so interested in the nearly obsolete object. TFTC!




Getting "Lucky" at Leavitt Lake

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Our group definitely considered itself 'lucky' to have made a find on this evil cache. What a strange spot though. I guess the potential for quite a bit of water exists here, but at the season all we saw were weeds.




Seven Acres

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


I've never seen a blinker without a magnet, but that's what I found in the dirt. I put it back in a rather precarious perch, but it was the best I could do. While we were struggling with the log, bthomas looked through the window of the cafe and noticed a bill dated from 2005. Tough times around here...TFTC.




Uptown Cemetery

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Pioneer cemetaries! Cool. Thanks for marking the spot.




How high's the water, Mama?

By: Johnny Cacher Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Wow! That's pretty high. Thanks for marking the historical spot.




bridge view

By: johnboy67 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small


Still looking for a train, and thought I might see one here. No luck, so we're moving on. TFTC.




Tower of H2O Power

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Glad the wind was blowing away from us! But wishing we'd brought a way to make our own 'shower'...NOT! [V] Thanks!




Feather River Canyon: The End

By: Lucky46 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Nice little twist! Thanks for a fun hunt.




Here's lookin' at you Kid!

By: Rick Blaine Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Great to be part of a group. This would have been a DNF solo. TFTC!




Maidu Greeting South

By: Lucky46 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


That greeting is a mouthful! Thanks for an interesting hide.




Maidu Greeting

By: Lucky46 Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Given all the bushes and trees, this cache could have taken a lot longer than it ended up taking. Thanks for the chance to get out and stretch the legs!




Bang Bang

By: graniteman84 Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Picking up DeLorme pages in NE California. Thanks!




5150

By: B.O.S.N. & MarshallOD Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular


Yup, I'm obsessed. BTW, this cache better be in page 50 'cuz otherwise I'll be back for another, which is certifiably nuts. I'm glad we came at the end of the summer though. If the hike to this cache had been muddy...well, let's not talk about that! Oh, I had fun turning the jeep around on the 'road': An 8 pointer with spotters. TFTC!




Goat Fire

By: patnanz Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Thanks for pointing out an interesting location. It had never occurred to me that a lot of the timber in a burned location could be salvaged. I learned something! TFTC.




Rock Creek Bridge

By: PowerDime Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Micro


It took the 4 of us the better part of 15 minutes searching to find this well hidden cache. Thanks for the challenge! It's a beautiful canyon.




Susanville Cemetery

By: jkruegel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Out with bthomas, triplep220, and capn finder. TFTC.




Johnstonville Cemetary

By: Cruiserdude Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


We were hoping for some pioneer headstones, but this cemetary was too new. Thanks for a clever cache, though!




Standish Quick Stop

By: h2o z Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small


By the time I was done fiddling with my GPSr in the jeep, bthomas had the cache in hand. Thanks for a true quickie.




PNF-Entering or Leaving?

By: Blucruz Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Great place to pull over and enjoy the great outdoors. TFTC!




Noble Nancy's Cache

By: auntlucky and supercacher and RGC Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular


Autorouting is usually pretty dicy for cache locations like this since it makes no distinctions between the maintained and not-so-maintained forest roads. No matter, we enjoyed a few bumps and brushes in the jeep. This was the first of many historic trails markers along our route. The bonus was that this one had a cache nearby. Thanks!



Modoc Rock

By: jetlabels Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Modestly understated, enough to baffle me for a moment. Thanks!




4 of Clubs "Yankee Hill"

By: Blucruz Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


I thought the name of this cache was some sort of historical reference...to a mine or something. Thanks for the cache anyhow!




Spring Valley Shady Rest

By: Blucruz & Family Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Heading up the canyon, this was one of our first stops on a long day of caching towards the north-east with a great group: triplep200, capn finder, and bthomas. Nice view, although no trains in sight. TFTC.




A Noble way

By: Cruiserdude Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen


Out with bthomas, triplep220, and capn finder in a quest for caches and these trail markers. TFTPC!




T.M.B. View

By: mr,b Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Heading for the mountains, we stopped for a few other caches along the way. Thanks for breaking up our trip.




Fork in the Road

By: Gary & Vicky and Juniper Jean Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen


We arrived at this cache just before sunset. What a beautiful backdrop for a cache. Thanks for luring us out into this remote area.




TT and VV#1

By: jackrat and The Brain Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


A bridge to nearly nowhere, but perfect for a cache. Thanks!




Feather Balls

By: Escapades Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small


What unusual rocks! A fun place to explore and look at the river below. TFTC.




Fork in the Road ! ! !

By: C.A.K.E. UNIT Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular


We loved our tour of the Feather River Canyon. Thanks for helping us along our way!




Modoc History

By: Juniper Jean Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular


We rolled into Alturas a bit late and under threatening skies. After getting a ticket down 395 a bit, I was in a sour mood. Finding a motel room and a good meal at an Italian place did wonders for my disposition. Thanks for the nice large ammo can cache!




Spanish Springs Resort

By: JamesJM Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular


Whoa! Evidence that the pioneers were geocachers! Somebody should tell them that groundspeak doesn't allow travelling caches anymore. [;)] TFTC!




The Celebration Tree

By: rock & crystal Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Thanks for brightening our day with this festive spot! TFTC.




A Very Rich Bar

By: Rock & Crystal Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Read the cache page. That's always good advice. Eventually triplep220 did, and wandered off in the right direction to make the find while the rest of us searched in all the wrong places. TFTC.




The Eby Stomp

By: Rock & Crystal Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Caching with bthomas, capn finder and triplep220 (who sent our answers). An interesting historical spot. Thanks for getting us out of the car up to a tricky little hide.




A View and a Benchmark Too

By: Rock & Crystal Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small


I'm really enjoying the trip up this canyon! Thanks for placing a cache for us to enjoy.




Filet of Sole

By: Uncle Al and Gatos Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Virtual


Fun spot! Although honestly the significance of what's going on here is lost on me. I visited with triplep220 and capn finder who have already sent our answers. TFTVC.




Yuba City

By: Art Clark Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small


First cache of the day on a very long road trip picking up counties, delorme pages, and lots of adventures. Thanks for keeping this old and historic cache alive. I enjoyed the views of Sutter Buttes on a clear and crisp morning. TFTC!
