In scanlon creek there are two passport offices; multi-staged
mailbox hybrids that will direct you to the starting coordinates!
Welcome to the Scanlon Creek Passport Office! Throughout the park
are various hole punch plaques, and it is your job to find them and
decipher them. Only after you have done that will you be able to go
after the cache! Remember to bring some paper so that you have
something to punch holes in!
A - N44 08.836 W79 33.865
B - N44 08.909 W79 33.871
C - N44 08.955 W79 33.740
D = 6
E = 3
F - N44 08.996 W79 33.313
Starting at N44 09.ABC W79 33.63F, Face the S-shaped tree
and go left along the trail until the path ends and you have many
options. Follow the green tree route until you pass between a large
3-trunked tree and a large 2-trunked tree. Go 7 meters off to the
right, and look in the throne of the stump.
A J.A.R.S. description of Letterboxing:
I have placed my custom stamp in it plus an ink pad but bring
your own ink just in case mine runs dry (Crayola washable markers make great
ink tools if you don't have an ink pad). If you have a stamp,
please stamp the log book. If you do not have a stamp, leave a
drawing (stick
figure drawings and happy faces would be just fine
you do not have to be a
Picasso or a Da
Vinci), or a sticker or a
fingerprint or pawprint, or try a nature print
using a leaf or flower as a
nature stamp, and sign the log. Stamps are really
cheap at Michael's and similar places, try Staples for an office
stamp or make your own with an eraser and an
exacto knife. Join the fun!

Arrrrgh, parked in the wrong place, took the long way around a very beautiful conservation area, screwed up the translation of the hole punches, ran out of time on the first visit. Came back today, yada, yada, yada found the final. TNLNSL Thanks for bringing us here Juicepig..

Fun multi/letterbox to do! Very creative. Took some work to uncover the final, only to find that it was also frozen in and I was unable to sign the logbook. tftc

Finally got around to finishing the caches in Scanlon. Went near dark one day and lost the coordinates another but I got to see that tree (yes...I REALLY wanted to see if it was actually S-shaped....it was ) Thanks for keeping it running!
