Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Located in Birds Hill Park, northeast of Winnipeg. Cache should be accessible from April to October.

This is a 2 part cache. At the given coordinates you will find a pair of "tools" located 10 meters apart. Find the tools, switch your imagination on, and figure out how to use them to find the cache which is located nearby. The encrypted hint tells you what the tools are and how to use them. The cache itself is an ammo container.

Some important notes whether you use the hint or not:
- Do not untie anything. If you do the cache is lost.
- Hide the cache as well as you can when you are finished so it is a challenge for the next hunter (you'll know what I mean once you find it).
- Don't forget your park pass. ;)

Pretty much any approach to the area will work, although there is an interesting tree lined trail that begins at N50 00.986/W096 54.666 (UTM: 14 U 0649648 5542548)

Hope you have as much fun finding this one as I had dreaming it up!

Special thanks go to Peter and Gloria for replacing the disintegrating Scooby Doo lunch box with the solid ammo container that's there today. (June 2005)

Special thanks go to goertzen who originally placed this cache and allowed us to adopt it. (April 2007)

We have been wanting to tackle this one for a long time and finally made it here. This was such fun even though we had to work very very hard to get to the log book. We did a very similar treasure hunt for our nieces our 1st summer of caching on our beach.
