The long story: This caches was placed for the BFL Boot Camp V event. It's a multicache with two redirect stages and a final. I love electronics, so I thought I would try another electronic night cache. I did one last year, but it didn't last long. What went wrong last year was the power source. Snow covered the solar cell and the batteries went dead. This year you will be providing the power source.

You will need ONE AA (double-A) battery to extract the redirect coordinates and eventually find the final. Make sure it's a fairly new battery. Geocachers usually have these on hand since our GPS's and flashlights use them. You can use the ones out of your devices if you want. It won't drain them much.

Park at N43 30.934 W079 59.848. After finding the posted location, you will be looking for a container that has reflectors on it. It may be high, low, or eye level. Use them flashlights! Once you find the container, use the device inside to get the last 3 numbers of the north and the west (ex:123 456 is N43 30.123 W079 59.456). The instructions to operate this device are within the containers. This is where you will need the battery. Have fun! and let me know how well (or not well) things went.
