Are you serious? I've seen some pics that were as close as mine without being in the actual exact spot. And I got lucky to find an open service road with a parks dept guy working on the gate so I asked if I could sneak in and good shot.
It's a hundred yards away fer chrissake. |

Thanks for the vote guys. I wonder if I should wait for tupelosue to chime in for the final word?

I say if you had to get through a gate and past a ranger than it counts.

My shot is from Green Island Road. I was trying to get as close as possible for a shot and just got lucky when I went to the end of that road.
Next tag coming up. It should be an easy one. And it's a beautiful day so everyone should get out on the road instead of scratching their head wondering where the place is. |

Ok, this tag is harder than I thought!
First clue: It's at a Marina. heyitzsushiboi wrote: kind of an old tag but i think i saw you drive down thornton across the 880 a few months back... the first time i've seen an mp3 on the road. i was like "WOW!" |

I thought it already had died.
Second clue: A popular pier that used to extend 3.5 miles into the bay. |

I think there's a 'rule' that if the tag's not picked up in a reasonable amount of time, the 'it' person gives a clue per day until someone gets it.
This one was a straight, 10 minute ride from where I work. Couldn't believe it was so close for so long. |

Guess my tag from this morning is now worthless. No more scooting by the Farmers Market while I am out.

So where was the pier post????
Schlagle, I wish I'd realized it was you as the red mp3 at the bastards rally. so many people there I didn't know or get to meet. I thought of taking a pic of my scoot in front of the welcome to california sign by the cal-neva and putting it up if I ever get another tag! |

At the speed this game goes in the East Bay, there's no hurry. The tag will probably sit there for a month before someone stirs themselves to go fetch it

Kind of like the Bay Area tag, which seems to have died on the vine.
