New Preserve, Sycamore Valley

Dan called in the afternoon and suggested a short caching trip to some new caches off of Camino Tassajara. This is the newly opened Sycamore Valley Open Space Preserve. We left around 2 PM and made a quick stop in a new business park out by Las Positas College for Act #2 – Prudence The Pretty Piglet #3. Paying no attention to the No Tresspassing signs, we made it a drive up, and Dan made an immediate find at 2:24 PM. Our timing was just right—in and out while the security guard was driving on the other side of the complex. I wonder if this one will last?

We started our hike at the north trailhead, so first up was Twinkie the Kid, which Janet spotted. We found this one at 3:13 PM. Next up the trail was LeChuck’s HellBeard Treasure, which was an easy find, but an entertaining cache description (a satirical take on a local super cacher). Found at 3:25 PM.

We found Wonder Bread at 3:35 PM. Cheetos was next at 3:53 PM. And finally, at 4:12 PM we found Cracker Jack hanging from a tree branch.
