Geocache Description:

This is a straight forward 2 stage multi located in the beautiful Hilton Falls Conservation Area, which will allow you to see some neat features that you may or may not know existed if it wasn't for geocaching. It is about a 3km round trip hike. Cache is a clear Lock-n-Lock container located near Hilton Falls within Hilton Falls Conservation Area.


Hilton Falls charges an admission fee. Alternatively you can park a few kms north at one of the small parking lots on 6th Line and follow the Bruce Trail side trail for a few kms to enter the conservation area for free.

Thanks to eelow&below for the container used for this geocache which we received as the FTF prize from their evil shelter cache at the OktoberCache event on October 6, 2007.


I am sure most can figure out the reason for this cache and why the various reasons for the title of it. If not, I will be happy to explain.

At the first stage you will find a plaque which contains two 5-digit numbers. Subtract the smallest 5-digit number from the largest 5-digit number. Next divide the result by 1000 and add that to the following meaningless coordinates to find the location of the geocache.
N43 28.640
W79 56.654
