Vancouver - English Bay Mystery Tour Multi-Cache

This is a seven-stage mystery tour that will take you on a stroll to interesting spots around English Bay, an iconic beach in downtown Vancouver. 

This is the 4^th in my series of mystery tours.  See GC1MPG9, GC1K2NN and GC4VMFJ for mystery tours in Vancouver’s Granville Market, Whistler, and Puerto Vallarta respectively.

This cache can and should be done on foot and will take about an hour but we recommend that you allow lots of extra time to enjoy the many sights and sounds. Bring a pen and a print-out for the simple arithmetic involved in the clues. There is parking available at the first stage.

The cache is a small container. It is capable of holding the log and perhaps one small travel bug. Bring a pen or pencil to sign the log. And please return the cache to its hiding place exactly as you found it.

All waypoints are N 49 and W 123. Where you see brackets below, simply find the number in the brackets and use its digits in the co-ordinates: for example, 17.2[12+19+4] would become 17.235.
