Geocache Description:

Located in beautiful Fossili Park. Moderate hike on good trail, lots of options.

Cache located near trail beside St Andrews Creek. You will need to cross a suspension bridge (can be very slippery when wet). Short 20 minute hike from parking. Park at pit just off Stirling Main, as road washed out further down. This area is just before bridge at cords N 49 14.500, W 124 56.930. You can go in before this point on other road, but you will miss the suspension bridge and have to cross creek (not possible in winter). You can also access this one by boat from Sproat Lake.
Encourage everyone to enjoy as many of the trails in this special place...go see the lake.

Cache is in regular sandwich sized Lock-n-Lock container with several good small trades and our first travel bug.

Terrain rated 3 because of suspension bridge (hey some people/dogs don't like them)

Overall difficulty rated 3 because:
1) I hid this better than our other caches
2) hard to get signal under dense maple canopy
3) hint requires a good working knowledge of Canadian folk music.

We would have put one here sooner but earlier in the year BC parks had placed a condemned sign on suspension bridge. They have done some upgrades (although the bridge was always solid).

Park named after a waterfall in Norway...you can see a waterfall from the cache.
