Bison Madness: Cache'n the UofM! Event Cache

Come one, come all for Winnipeg's second group caching event! This is a great opportunity for new cachers to pick up some tips and meet some of Manitoba's veteran cachers.

Some of the informal group caching that's been happening lately has been a lot of fun, so this event is a way of ensuring everyone hears about the outing and has the opportunity to join in. This will be a relaxed evening that's about finding some caches and socializing with your fellow GeoCachers.

Where: University of Manitoba
When: Monday, June 26 at 5:00 PM
Meet: N49 48.543 W97 07.993 ( G.U.E. Magic Scroll Cache #69,105)
Park: University of Manitoba Parking Map

Optional Supper:

Where: Boston Pizza, 2729 Pembina Hwy
When: 8:00 PM.

If you'd like to join the group, please post a "Will Attend" so the evening's coordinator will know if everyone's present before heading out. This will be an informal event, so if you need to join up part way through the evening, please make arrangements with somebody else that's signed up and has a cell phone so you can meet the group at one of the caches. If you have to leave early, that's fine too, we'll understand :-)

For more information on this and future group caching events, please visit the Group Caching Outing thread on the Manitoba Geocaching Association discussion forum.

To save on the environment, we'll be doing the walking tour. There are eleven caches planned for U of M group caching event that amount to about five km of walking and should take about three hours. The caches are:

1. A Walk on the Southern Riviera
2. Domenatrix - I'll be Blitzed!
3. PointPath
4. Bison Castle Cache
5. The Timely Evergreen 
6. Burchill’s Botany Blitz
7. Blitz the Quarterback
8. Wisent's Cousin 
9. Smartpark Construction Cam
10. Edak-Rap
11. G.U.E. Magic Scroll Cache #69,105

Of course active caches in the vicinity of the U of M may change between now and then, so check this page periodically for updates!

FTF’s are more of a solo venture, so if it happens that a FTF comes up for grabs, if the group finds it, the group may claim it. If someone wants the FTF for their own stats, they should go earlier and get it.

Hope to see you all there!
