You're looking for a concealed, non-magnetic micro. It's up high,
near the entrance. I've had a few caches here go missing, so
hopefully this one will stay put for a while.... (Sign-only, and
bring your own pen.)
It smells a bit in here, and I wouldn't want to come in with
bare feet! A recent log also mentioned bats. :)
Del Puerto Canyon is a long, relentlessly twisty, classic
backroad of the type I very much enjoy but not everyone does.
Please drive carefully and realize that there are no gas stations
anywhere between Patterson, San Jose, and Livermore on these roads,
and there likely will be no cell reception in most places, and so
on. Plan accordingly.
This appears to be an old mine entrance which has been sealed
up. The concrete floor has what are perhaps indications that there
used to be tunnels down from here I guess? There is a lot of quartz
in the vicinity which I think used to be associated with gold
mines, and I know they used to mine for magnesium in this canyon
back in the 40s. But if anyone has any definite information on this
mine, please include it with your log.
Congratulations to Geokashers for FTF (and 5 touchdowns!)
after eight days.
