Geocache Description:


The original cache was wiped out by a giant eucalyptus tree which bthomas calls a widowmaker in some of his logs; so I guess I am a cache widower.

This cache is completely different from my original cache at this park. The container is a small to micro cache which has a small area for small items. Please bring your pen to log your find.

As described in my original cache, Patricia Wharton Park is a neighborhood mini park which has just been improved with concrete pathways, new benches, and landscaping. The Park was originally constructed by Belmont 4-H Club members in the 1970’s, in memory of Patricia Wharton who was a parent volunteer in the 4-H Club.

Although the cache is partially out of sight, you DO NOT need to move any vegetation on the ground to find this cache. Although new cachers may find this hide more difficult than experienced cachers, I am placing the level of difficulty for experienced cachers for the first couple of weeks.

Please place cache back exactly as you found it. Thanks.

Note: I did have some difficulty to get my GPS to settle down and give me consistent readings, possibly due to the electric wires on 3 sides of this parcel. I took many readings and finally settled on coordinates that were the most consistent. So my advise is to rely more on your geocaching instincts than on the coordinates.
