Geocache Description:


Pioneer Mother Monument
Pioneer Mother 1
Pioneer Mother 2
Pioneer Log Cabin
The Pioneer Mother Statue and a Pioneer Log Cabin are located at the grove of Colonial Historic Trees. Planted in 1896, this grove includes a tree for each of the 13 Colonies. Each tree is a different type, native to the area it represents. The gently sloping meadow and ring of trees create a tempting vista when you're passing by on JFK Drive. The bizarre Pioneer Mother Statue also tends to call attention, and is rumored to be a creepy sight on foggy nights. The statue is the 1915 work of Charles Grafly and was later restored by Benjamin Wheeler. The cabin was constructed in 1911 from redwood logs (floated down in the form of a raft down the coast from Humboldt County), to honor the pioneer women of California. The cabin now houses the Permits Division of the Park Department.

Cache container is a 9 ounce Lock-N-Lock.
