[Geocaching] Cars, UCI

Written by on October 15, 2011 in Local, Outdoors - 1 Comment

Geocachers, this geocache is not one of the more creative geocaches I have found. In fact, it is very ordinary, being a small magnetic Altoids Strips container.

So why is this geocache called “Cars?” As the name hints, this cache has something to do with cars. If you guessed correctly, this cache is found in a parking structure, the one near the ball field and art buildings at UCI to be more precise.

What makes this geocache special is that it is one of the few UCI caches, and according to the cache owner, you can see fireworks from Disneyland here on a clear summer night.

I found this cache on a late afternoon two summers ago with my sister as she was a summer school student there. As it is a college parking structure, it is always crowded with cars during the day time. Since it was during summer though, it was pretty empty so I recommend either looking for this cache during a summer day or any time during the year at night.

The coordinates are slightly off, but use your geosenses and you will be able to find this cache. Make sure to enjoy the local view while you are at it, and if you are there at the right time, hopefully you will be able to see the Disneyland fireworks.

Have you gone geocaching before? Where can you go to get a good view of the local area?
