This cache is part of a new series of mystery caches located along the trail to Moose Pond. The cache is not at the listed location. You will need to solve a fairly simple puzzle to get the actual coordinates for the cache. To solve this puzzle, you need to find the coordinates of a famous fly-fishing river that are hidden somewhere on this page. Enter these coordinates in Google Maps or similar map program and look for the name of the River. You will then enter the name of the River, and the full name (no abbreviations) of the state in which it is located into Puzzle-Checker. If the river is not located in the US, enter the country instead of the state. For example, if the river is the Saranac River, your answer is SaranacRiverNewYork (No Spaces). Submit this answer to Puzzle-Checker, and you will receive the actual coordinates, and possibly a hint to find the cache.
This is one of the best known steelhead and salmon fishing rivers in California. We had a friend who had a house in Happy Camp near these coordinates. We would visit him to fish on this great river. This river has many long runs (riffley water where steelhead hold while moving up a river) that are often filled with steelhead and salmon. It is common to hook many fish a day on the river. Most fishing holes on this river have a gravel bottom, so wading the river is fairly easy.
