CALIFORNIA, , l..A. County, City of Torrance (2 boxes)

Madrona Marsh Nature Center & Preserve, Planted on Easter, 3/31/02 by Don & Gwen.  Inappropriately, domestic animals are abandoned at this site; these two Easter bunnies, however, should not proliferate.
 
The Nature Center is located at 3201 Plaza Del Amo in Torrance.  Park in the Nature Center parking lot and walk across the street to the northern main entrance.  Go to the Interpretive map.  Box # 1 is located at map intersection
O-7 and Box # 2 is in the area of M-15.
 
# 1  "Don't leave your bunny, bunny"   From the Interpretive map look for the tall  multitrunked eucalyptus tree at 60 degrees and about 100 paces.  The box is on the north side of the tree in a large cavity covered with debris,
between 2 sawn off trunks and the main trunks.
 
# 2  "Madrona Marsh Bunny Jr."  Find the drinking fountain on the west side of the area along Madrona.  From the fountain count 28 upright fence poles (those set in concrete)  north. The 28th pole is approximately 100 paces north of the fountain.  Walk 26 paces at 140 degrees from the 28th fence pole.  Look for a gnarly dead tree with holes about 3 feet high.  The box is tucked in a hole with tree debris as a blanket for Junior bunny.
