The LA County Quad Challenge

Yesterday I “completed” the Los Angeles County Quadrangle Challenge cache. I say “completed” because I still haven’t earned the Find. I DNFed the Cobblestone Mountain quad because the Piru Creek cache is MIA. I will need to revisit that area before I have truly completed the challenge. I have, however, cached in all 81 quads that make up Los Angeles County.

Here is a list of the caches that I found yesterday:

Cache	Quad
Red Box Dos	Chilao Flat
Newcomb Ranch Manzanita	Mt. Waterman
Sierra Alta Trail	Crystal Lake
Pricklys & Pines	Condor Peak
SERVING THE MOTHER ROAD	Glendora
A Green Can in a Green Bush	Azusa
On Holey Ground	Mt. Baldy
Where’s Clark?	Ontario
Stonehenge-West?	Los Alamitos
Polish Pole	Long Beach
Urban Unconformity	San Pedro
When you’re BLUE	Torrance
All Boxed In	Redondo Beach

It’s been a great adventure. LA County is quite a place. We typically think of Los Angeles County as the large urban area that it is. But it is much more. Beaches, coastal mountains, deserts, snow-capped high mountains–LA County has it all.
