Leap of Faith

By: CiL's evil twin Changes in Attitudes Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Although today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine, I think we did a lot of things really wrong at this cache. First, we were on the wrong side of the fence. Second, we stuck our hands in a place that we really shouldn't have. Eventually vaccine made the find in a place that I had already searched. Whew! TFTC.


Lofty Lady

By: MamaBe & CTomGeo Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. The most interesting thing to me about the lofty lady was that her hair and hat were flapping a bit in the breeze. It definitely gave her a life-like quality! TFTC.


Ralph Brown

Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. I spotted the cache first and let him have the pleasure of a solo find as well. What a strange little remainant of whatever was here before the new library! TFTC.


YVXX - Safer?

By: Marky & Joani Difficulty: 3.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. There was a lady walking her dog who seemed to glance at us several times, but we knew there was no chance the cache would get muggled. [;)] TFTC.


Happy Mothers Day!!

By: Adamski Adventurers Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Fortunately it was a quick find, and we didn't attract any attention. Welcome home, Hailey! TFTC.


Johnny

By: Adamski Adventurers Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. I think we scared off a few people in the park though. After searching for this cache, I was covered with dirt and spider webs, but no one was around to misinterpret the silly grin I must have had on my face. TFTC.


Northern CA Solar System Model: Asteroid Ceres

By: shadow101 Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. We were searching for about 5 minutes before vaccine realized that there was a young girl in a car right next to the cache. (Tinted windows...I guess she didn't want to watch her brother's baseball game.) Luckily we were able to palm the cache without her realizing what was going on, but I'm sure it was confusing and scary for her! TFTC.


Moore is better

By: Changes in Latitudes Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Fortunately for us, it was getting on toward dark and activity in the park was dying down. TFTC.


High Water

By: bullit Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. This area reminded me of the huge flood control dikes built along the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers in the Midwest where I used to live. People used to say that those dikes would control 100 year floods too. Time will tell I suppose. TFTC.


Non-obvious Park and Ride - Los Gatos

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


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. There were no nearby standard parking spots, so I took a risk in one of the plentiful handicapped stalls. TFTC.


Alien Escape Pod

By: ProTechCC Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. The radiation didn't bother me too much, but a dadburn'd twig kept poking me in the head. TFTC.


Hidden Walk- Wildcat Creek

By: workerofwood Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. I made him go get it. I think we accessed the cache from a newer portion of the trail. A fun little walk. TFTC.


Secret Walkway #5 - Shadow Oaks

By: Marky & Joani Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Nearby fence construction wasn't going to deter us geocaching trolls from our appointed rounds! TFTC.


Spider Monkey Fiasco

By: spyder woman Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. This was definitely a fiasco for us. First we approached the hard way...twice. Then we tried the correct hiding spot right off the bat, but somehow couldn't remove the camouflage. Then we searched lots of unlikely spots under the watchful eyes of athletic muggles. After all that, I'm amazed we didn't end up with a DNF. TFTC.


Mellow Brick Road

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


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. What a cool spot! As we approached, I was slightly annoyed by the bumpiness of the road, but then vaccine read the cache page description and all became clear. TFTC.


Canoas Flock Revived

By: DR Doolitte (adopted by viperfin and CA Poppi Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. He discovered the part of the cache that keeps things where they belong which led me to find the actual container. It was confusing for a moment or two! TFTC.


Mum's the Word

By: Beckerbuns & Ricky (adopted by halhal) Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. We searched for awhile since the GPSr was no help under the trees and the hint was non-specific. Eventually we hit the correct geopile. TFTC.


Northern CA Solar System Model: Planet Venus

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


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. We may have attracted some attention with our flashlights flickering around in the dark, but the find was quick and we moved on. TFTC.


Bird Person of Willow Glen

By: Tammie The Dog Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Lots of unusual things to see in this park today. There was some sort of fundraising marathon going across the way complete with loud music and tents and lots of people running on the track. Weird use of camouflage on the cache! It had me stumped, but vaccine came through. TFTC.


Curtner Station

By: Stacy & Jerry Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Thanks for marking the spot. I think I broke a couple of traffic rules trying to exit the parking lot, but no one was around to care on a Saturday evening. TFTC.


HWOB

By: krabaple and Scorpion King Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. This was another one that I had trouble navigating to, but vaccine was quite patient, and we got there eventually. Sorry, I forgot to write down the name of the nearby establishment too, but it was something like 'Helmut's House of Bocce'. [;)] TFTC.


Give My Regards to Broadway

By: Dowbiggin Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. We went at night, and passed the sounds of several parties. The nighttime search was a bit of a challenge, but we found it eventually. TFTC.


EyeGuy

By: devonushka Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. On this one, we ran right into the Cat Hill bicycle race. There were lots of competitors with big thighs and spectators with cameras. After dodging all of that, we dealt with the usual geocaching issues as well. TFTC.


The Queen and I

By: MamaBe Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. Grab and go. TFTC.


Sgt. Preston

By: spyder woman Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. We drove around for quite a while, but were pleasantly rewarded after finding the access point. TFTC.


Caching supplies

By: jgtaylor123 Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. I really enjoyed spending a few minutes browsing through the store. Thanks for marking the spot. TFTC.


River Glen

By: fox51 and jmunch Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. TFTC.


Rosemary's Baby

By: Dowbiggin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small


Today was perfect weather for a San Jose cache run with vaccine. What a cool neighborhood. We felt a bit exposed while on scene, but appreciated that the homeowners association had provided lighting to help us search. TFTC.
