Puzzled in Birch Cove Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Cache-tech: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have had no contact with the cache owner since my last note and there has been no notes posted to the cache page in that time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache.
When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link (Mine) across the top and then click on this cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future. If you do not plan on replacing/repairing your cache, please CITO any remains returning the site to the original state before you placed your cache.

Thanks for your understanding,
Cache-tech

The Above Cache Coordinates are Wrong


To find the correct cache coordinates , you must decode the message below .


This cache is a painted tobacco cannister and there is a special FTF prize... SURPRISE #5 from Eastriver !

The code is pretty straight forward ,
but may take a bit of time to decode as the little Scout is a bit of a keener...

Parking is available near Burger King just below the trail head. HRM police patrol up to the trail head where the majority of the mountain bikers park as there have been vehicle breakins in the past.
