Geocache Description:

This is a quick stop and grab, and should make for an easy find. Take some time to check out the cool testing equiptment.

The cache is located at a research facility in Egbert, Ontario.

This research facility is a focal point for atmospheric research into air quality, climatology and meteorology. The Centre is located on agricultural land near the hamlet of Egbert, approximately 20 km southwest of Barrie. Opened in 1988, it is an integrated multidisciplinary facility designed to monitor the changing atmosphere and to serve as a testing site for new methods to measure air pollution, climate and weather conditions.

Researchers and technicians oversee networks for monitoring atmospheric elements or pollutants collected from the air and precipitation (e.g., rain or snow).
