Geocache Description:

Part of the Muskoka Falls Tour on and off the Trans Canada trail in clear pine forest. Lots of rocks and roots. Watch your step, it can get slippery when the terrain is wet.

Parking for this multi-cache is at N45 03.785 W079 18.584.
The Wilson's Falls Trail is part of the Trans Canada Trail. There are several loops, if you are interested in making this a little longer hike. Several options are presented in a trail guide found at the parking area.
This is a fairly tree-covered area, so you will need to take your time to get your coordinates correct. There are safe ways across the river. Do not take risks and watch children around the river edge.

The first part of this venture takes you to a history lesson on the past and present uses of the falls. You will note some number sequences with your lesson - delete these sequences from the following number to get your next coordinate.

4512.6035186000 _ _ _ _ _ _ _

30079181907496 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The second clue leads you to a small tributory to the Muskoka River, downstream from the larger Wilson' Falls. The coordinates are found in a short story located in a pill bottle. Read carefully!! (If you would like a change of pace, there is a hint of a trail on the ridge that leads back to the larger falls.)

The 3rd and last coordinate takes you to the cache.

45 _ _ . _ _ _

079 _ _ . _ _ _

Take your time to enjoy the trail that runs along the river's edge on the other side of the bridge.
Wilson's Falls changes seasonally and is a great place to come at different times of the year.
