| I've been coming to this location for more then 25 years. Some things have changed and others have remained the same. To find this cache you can park in two locations. The quickest way is to find parking close to the "shack" and find the wood steps. Please use stealth when retrieving. Good luck and enjoy the scenery!small cache no trade items. |

Happy Valentines Day from TRAKD
My partner “Brave Sir Robin” and I finished another “FUN” day at our conference. The flashlights were out for this one and we were lucky because within minutes of hitting the proper spot we had the cache in hand. We signed the log and continued our adventures. 
Cheers

TRAKD and I busted out of a work conference and went caching - we had to get some fun and adventures in for the day to counter that boring stuff. Lots of great caches in the area and this was one of them. We used the 25 step method and quickly grabbed this one. The Shack was closed so we went on our merry way. Thanks for the excuse to adventure.

Couldn't have timed it better. I saw the pullout in the areal view, but had no idea it was for a Ruby's. Should I just park and get the cache even though it says customer parking only? Absolutely! 'Cause I became a customer as it was about 12:30pm. The Turkey sandwich was very good. Found the cache before my order came up. Thanks for the fun.

I was up in the area with a friend visiting her parents. Thought I'd indroduce her to a little geocaching. She loved the area we are at and might have discovered a new restaurate! TFTC TNLNSL

Easy find. Right there where you said it was. TNLNSL
It was our first trip back to Crystal Cove since we moved to Temecula 2 years ago. We spent most weekends in Crystal Cove, from long before our first date in 1975, raised our children on that beach every weekend during the 80's and 90's. We will miss the way it was. Like the rest of Orange County, it's really a new world. Nice view, restored nicely but too many people! Hey, where's the clock!

We took a long walk along the beach to get this one. Easy to retrieve without being noticed. TNLN

Visiting from Katy, TX. My brother and I had a good time looking for this cache, and then we visited the newly opened Beachcomer. TNLN

Found the cache just about sunset. As we were logging in we heard the bugle blow down below and went to check it out. The Beachcomer Restaurant is open and we got a cocktail and watched the sunset while listening to the waves breaking on the shore. What a perfect night, will come back to the restaurant for breakfast on Sunday. Thanks for showing me this place. This is what caching is all about.

Saw the steps from down below at Crystal Cove. Had lunch in the new restaurant--yum! Then, after finding the cache, had a Pumpkin shake at the Shake Shack. TFTC SL
