Geocache Description:

This is just off the Shubenacidie Trail System. The main path is very nice and good for strollers or bikes but the cache is a few meters from the main path and probably not accessible by anyone needing mobility aides. ***CAUTION*** Some bushwacking is required and since reading up about ticks and the health problems they may cause, please take appropriate precautions. (I didn't find any while I was there but that doesn't mean they may not be present)

This is an ammo can camoflaged with camo hockey tape. It is quite well hidden not too far off the main path for the Shubenacidie Trail System. It's theme is Canadian Patriotism (my definition of patriotism is - a feeling of love and devotion to one's own homeland, not just limited to military support) and to start things off on the right track, I filled it with items that either have the word "Canada" on it or the Maple Leaf is prominant. (There are a couple of items that don't meet this criteria).

I would really like any cachers that find this one to follow the theme and only place items that have the word "Canada" or a picture of the Maple Leaf or items that are uniquely Canadian icons such as Canadian Tire money, anything with a beaver on it etc.

Lastly, please be fair when trading, If you take a dollarstore item, replace it with a dollar store item. If the item is worth more, replace it with an item of equal or greater value.
