rural, Ontario

Description A small cache located in Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation area. The small locknlock container is hidden near the north end of trail 1, and can be accessed from the trailhead behind the Outdoor Center, or via the service road. Either take the trail behind the outdoor center (either direction as the cache is at the top of the loop) or head up the service road and meet up with trail 1 part way up. Click here to see a trailmap. The park is open from 7:30AM till dusk. There is a booth to collect an entry fee. The booth is manned during special events, and throughout the summer months. At other times the booth is not manned, but the park is still open. The outdoor center has bathrooms and an observation deck. They also have equipment available for rent. There are many other great caches within the park, spend the day and check out all the trails. This cache was hidden on a school photography trip (and yes we took pictures after hiding ;) ) Although it wasn't my class on the trip, when the teacher asked if I wanted to come along I didn't hesitate to take the opportunity to go caching! As I put the caches together quickly there is no FTF prize this time. Hope you enjoy the cache and the trails. (A few of the photos we took on the trails today, quality kinda sucks from resizing them tho)

PLANNING

After a successful geocaching venture this morning I set up another plan for 3 geocaches in the Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area just north of Kingston.

OUTCOME

This was my fifth search of the day. This was my favorite geocache on this trip to Ontario. I had to climb up a fallen tree (slope about 45 degrees) for about 15 feet in order to see the container. A clever title.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

Great cache! TNLNSL. TFTC.

Here are two photos:

I am now 5/5 for today. It turned out this was my last find while in Ontario during the week. I was thus able to add 1 to my list of provinces where I have found at least one cache. That brings my total to 4 (BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario).
