Driven ’Round the Bend #1 Traditional Geocache

Anyway. Considering the copious amounts of water that must have been required to turn this parched landscape green, the steepness of the cart paths, the relentlessly blistering summer heat, and the paucity of mad dogs and Englishmen bonkers enough to venture forth in said inferno, as well as the frequency with which real firestorms swept through here, it's not hard to imagine that this was a business doomed to failure before it began. Wonder how many of our tax dollars went into this money pit. Area still shows plenty of evidence of the hydromulch sprayed after the fires to stabilise the soil and prevent erosion.
Cache is a former biscuit tin, slightly camouflaged, If you use a modicum of care, it's possible to navigate completely on concrete until ten feet from the cache. I wouldn't recommend parking in the playground lot, as I don't know how rigidly the parking restrictions are enforced. Street parking is not too far away in any case, which should be safe enough.
