I made the quick stroll from parking to grab this cache. Bright sun, light wind, all in all a beautiful day to be out and about caching! TFTC. mjp303
Pillar Point Bluff by wendycat
Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
After lunch with bthomas at the 3 zero cafe on the other side of the runways, this was a quick P&G. I'll have to come back for the hike up the hill another time. At 6'4" I was able to snag it flat footed! TFTC. mjp303

Zero's Challenge by Lock,Shock&Barrel
Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
I've sort of gotten away from TBs over the years, but, wow, looking back there's quite a bit of schlepping trackables in my history. Thanks for the challenge! mjp303
Old Granada by donnie985
Size: (small) Difficulty: Terrain:
Thanks for the history lesson of (El)Granada! Things proceeded normally until the search for the final. As I approached GZ, I could see that the fire department had their pumper truck set up a bit down the road with ladder fully extended. Due to tree cover, they probably couldn't see me, but I don't think they were really looking. There were plenty possible hiding places, so I sat down on a large downed tree to check the hint. Suddenly I heard the engine rev and a gurgling noise followed by a whooshing...yup, you guessed it, test shot with the water cannon! Right where I was sitting and pretty much right on the cache, as it turned out. I scrambled out of the way, fortunately only getting slightly wet. After about 5 minutes of deluge, the test was done and I had the cache in hand! TFTC! mjp303

Stairway to Seal Cove by HMB Lipripper
Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
I approached GZ dead on a negative tide. The deck was deserted, but plenty of folks were exploring the rocks and pools below. Very pretty view! Container has lost its attachment device, I found it on the ground. Replaced in perch, but it probably won't stay there. TFTC. mjp303
Smokey Delight by HMB Lipripper
Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
I kept thinking someone would come outside and ask if I needed help, which I truly did need. It was not to be, so I pressed on until I had the cache in hand. TFTC. mjp303

Mermaid's Faerie Forest Treasure by Team MNM
Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
You know you've been caching a while when you come back to places that you've been to before, finding a new iteration of a long since archived hide. The last version was over 10 feet from the ground and required significant agility. I liked this hide. Tricky, but not too difficult to get to. TFTC! mjp303

Size: (micro) Difficulty: Terrain:
bthomas and I followed bread crumbs up the hill. 6 down 4 to go! I didn't like giving up elevation after working so hard for it! TFTC. mjp303
Where's PALO? by begneiss
Size: (small) Difficulty: Terrain:
Great hike, and even better views! About an hour and a half from start to finish, including stops for the breadcrumb caches. I think bthomas would have moved along more quickly, but my lungs were burning, and he was kind enough to allow me to set the pace. TFTC! mjp303 BTW, I dropped a red jeep TB in the cache, and then discovered the TB tag in my backpack later on. Whoever retrieves it please contact me so that I can get you the tag! Thanks.
