What a perfect caching destination for a 58th birthday morning excursion. I had learned of this site back at Easter when we also camped at Morro Bay State Park. This time the tides were favorable for a post-breakfast paddle starting from the State Park marina. My sit-on-top kayak was a perfect platform to ease up on harbor seals, pelicans, and a host of afloat and shoreline birds along my route. Due to a thick fog close to the deck, I could not see very far in any direction until I reached the narrows at this end of the bay. I arrived at GZ within 10 minutes of high tide. Found the external housing a bit tough to open, especially while reaching up from a tilty platform. Algae growth was the culprit. I found the cache empty except for the logsheet. Added my signature, an aquamarine lizard, and a Sterling silver gecko charm. As I was closing things up, my long-time friends from Santa Barbara arrived in their much speedier tandem kayak and together we explored to the end of navigation. On our way back, we also checked out the channels and flats to the southeast of the campground. In the fog, the GPSr was very helpful in guiding us directly across the bay to our destination. Wonderful place. Can’t wait to return.
