holazola: I like this location, but they keep rearranging the landscaping, and now they don't want you "off trail". Archiving this one, and may put out something new to refresh the gameboard.

Geocache Description:

You are looking for a hide near the end of the Elings Park Veteran's Memorial Walk. The walkway starts near the "Elings Park" cache GCX9KH. The cache is hidden near the Terrace of Remembrance. This is a nicely done memorial with a beautiful views along the whole walk. Please Note: Elings Park is Open from Sunrise to Sunset only. Cache was hidden on Veteran's Day 11/11/11.

The Memorial Walk is a 1500-foot, tree-lined, landscaped walkway along which lie ten large marble and sandstone year-markers, beginning with 1962. Each marker is engraved with the names of the soldiers who gave their lives that year in Vietnam. At the last marker, 1973, the walkway continues on to the Terrace of Remembrance, where the names of the rest of the servicemen and women who lost their lives in other wars are displayed around a large stainless steel world globe. A total of 463 Santa Barbara County soldiers lost their lives while serving in conflicts around the world.
