Burned in E.K. (Regular Edition) Traditional Cache
kildonan61: There used to be more to the stairs than what's there now... Unfortunately the part that was taken away had the cache in it. It had a good run.

I have caches in beautiful places. This is not one of them.
This cache will bring you to the Terry Sawchuk Memorial Arena. Named for a great goaltender who "burned" many a potential goal scorer. But before it was named after Sawchuk, it was called the "Incinarena" and had this name painted in large letters on a smokestack. This was in memory of the place's prior function as the incinerator for the then City of East Kildonan's garbage dump. The old garbage hill is just to the west - be sure to take in the view from up there.
The cache is a 100ml lock n lock. Magnets are involved in the hide; please try not to disturb them, search carefully. Definitely not kid friendly due to, among other things, all the broken glass at the cache site. It's a chronic problem here. Don't show up wearing sandals.
JBrandt36 got up before most people on a Sunday morning to claim FTF on the first cache under this listing. That cache used the same container as a wicked hard puzzle cache that was hidden very close to the current traditional cache (in fact I'm using the puzzle cache's solution as the coordinates!) Ztirnats was the first finder of this Mark II version of the cache.
