Geocache Description:

The cache is located in Shaughnessy, one of the oldest and most affluent neighbourhoods in Vancouver.

Back in the early 1910's, Shaughnessy Heights were created as a suburb for Vancouver's upper class citizens on the hilly slopes south of False Creek. The mansions of the rich were surrounded by lush lawns, hedges and tree-line boulevards that followed the contours of the local terrain to the Crescent; a circular drive of expensive property located on the crest of the hill overlooking the city.

The cache is hidden inside Shaughnessy Park, a grassy oval formed by the Crescent. The forest-like grove planted in the park represents nearly 50 different plant species. The terrain is flat, and the difficulty rating partially reflects the challenge of not being spotted while retrieving / replacing the cache.

After finding the cache, take a walking tour to enjoy the city's most valuable heritage landscapes. For a suggested route and a list of notable mansions, please visit the city's heritage website (visit link)
