Aptos

Karen and I drove to Aptos today for a walk along the beach at Rio del Mar and then some hiking in Nisene Marks. We found a big tree to go along with the four caches we hunted down.

Summit Road GBA 4x4

Dan and I left this morning a little after 7 AM to get to the Summit Store on Summit Road in the Santa Cruz mountains by 9 AM. Traffic was lighter than I expected so we we had time to find one cache before getting to the store.

After meeting up with the group (6 vehicles total) we headed south onto some dirt roads, the least improved of which was in Nisene Marks State Park. We finished around noon in Corralitos.

We headed off on our own to get a few more finds along the beach in Seacliff State Beach. Total finds for the day was 14.

A walk in Bishop Ranch Open Space

Looking for a close by location for an afternoon walk, Karen and I grabbed 4 caches in Bishop Ranch open space. We traversed the loop clockwise and met 4wheeler doing it counter-clockwise. Afterwards, we got one more in a close by park and ride.
