Geocache Description:


Over the course of three years, I have come here many times to take coordinates, and each time, my old coordinates were off by about thirty feet. Since I cannot get coordinates that are reliable, I have made the hint even easier.

The coordinates above will take you to the Lynn Canyon Ecology Centre. The centre is free for anyone to enter, but they do ask for you to make a donation in their donation box at the front door. The Ecology Centre has information rooms that are broken up into a plant room, a human room, and an animal room. There is also a movie theatre that has over 100 free videos for families to view, and a playroom for children. For more information, you can visit their website at https://www.lynncanyonecologycentre.ca/.

This multi-cache will require you to go inside the Ecology Centre and gather some information.

The final location is at 49 BE.FNM 123 HL.DIK. You will not need to take more than two small steps off of the main trail in order to retrieve the cache.
