Amazingly and most fortunately, my Groundspeak id converts to value which is a latitude within a few miles of where I goecache and waymark all the time.
So I built a spreadsheet with some longitude values in my area for the given latitude and dropped them into BatchGeo to get a plot of the latitude line in my area. I looked for nice parks where this latitude crosses.
Since my name "number" ends with two zeros, I decided to strive to find a crossing longitude ending with two zeros as well. The first place I found was along the San Tomas-Aquino Creek Trail in Santa Clara, California.
I got to the trail and started walking, until I found the desired coordinates, took a GPSr screenshot and appropriate pictures.
The spot is just west of Great America Parkway near where the trail divides into two paths. The path overlooks a small body of water to the west and the creek to the east.
