Where the Land EndsBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. Beautiful views and a frothing ocean to enjoy! TFTC.
Where the Sun SetsBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. Great spot for pictures. We had a little suprise on the way to the cache: A train!
Waddell BeachBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. This was our lunch stop. The wind was quite fierce, so we ate in the car and watched the parasails jumping waves. Neat. Oh, and I wandered over and found the cache. Thanks.
Greyhound RockBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. A quick find, although we had to dodge the glances of several muggles sitting in their cars. The tide was in, so we decided not to try the trek out on the rock. TFTC.
Shelob's StairBy: Sgt Stitches Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. I ventured up while the rest of the crew played on the beach. A fun little scramble, and the views were definitely worth the effort of getting there. The wind was really whipping and I was starting to feel like I might get blown off the side of the rock as I slid carefully down to the cache site, but there it was, safe and secure. Thanks for the cache!
Cypress BluffBy: Kealia Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. It was a nice walk down to the beach, and we spent a bit talking to the crew that was cutting down the cypress trees and burning the logs. Evidently they're non-native species. (Huh?!? ...I always seem to learn something new while caching!) According to the Ranger, the multi-year plan is to remove all of the trees on the bluff. The kids had fun playing chase with the waves on the beach. It was high tide, and the water was coming right up to the edge of the cliff. Thanks for pointing out this beautiful spot!
The Mines of MoriaBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 3.0 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. Getting the shorter folks up on the shelf in front of the entrance was the first trick. Once accomplished, Ted (8), Maggie (11), and I set out. The last third of the trek was definitely toughest for me, as the roof definitely got low enough that I couldn't crouch through it, and I ended up crawling a ways. (Ouch! Hard on the knees, but definitely easier on the thighs and the back! I'm wondering if the pipe section is being slowly crushed in the middle? [:O] Or perhaps my fatigued brain was playing tricks on me?) In any case, the kids were seriously freaked when they realized that I was quite a ways behind! Eventually, we emerged at the other end, and gratefully the cache was a quick find. Hearing road noise nearby, I briefly contemplated an overland exit, but smartly abandoned that idea. After a self-portrait, we headed back through. Thanks for a great adventure!
The Last WhistleBy: St.Brendan Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 4.0 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. This was a fun adventure! We decided to approach from the east, which was probably a good thing since the creek was quite full as it approached the beach. On the way down though, I had my doubts since the trail was quite muddy. After finding the cache, we worked our way around to the beach and played for a while. The wind of an approaching storm was quite strong and eventually we retraced our steps and moved on. Thanks for the history and the adventure.
A Hole in the HeadBy: PurplePeople Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. I found two cache containers: Motor Bug's, which I removed, and the proper PurplePeople placement (...heh!). Lots of wind today. TFTC!
Tales of Odysseus: Aeolus, Keeper of the WindsBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. On our way down to a couple of other adventures, this one was too close to pass up. Thanks!
Scott Creek Bridge BenchmarkBy: 50sumtin Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
With clear weather and everyone on holiday, we decided to take a family geocache outing along the coast. Fun little hunt in a busy spot. TFTC.
