The cache is placed by a large rock that carries several plaques as a remembrance of people who enjoyed the area. The view past the rock over the lake is quite nice.
The Memorial Rock cache is near the Chute Lake resort. The resort barely escaped the fire that devoured much of Okanagan Mountain Park in 2003, thanks to the skill and persistence of the water bomber pilots.
This Back Roads (BR) cache is placed along the 20 kms of back roads from Naramata to Kelowna. Enter the road from the south at N 49 39.631 W 119 36.357. Continue along Chute Lake Road and the KVR until you turn onto the Forestry Road at N 49 45.375 W 119 27.045. Then enter Kelowna's Mission area at N 49 47.326 W 119 30.034. These roads are not maintained on a regular basis and the road conditions can vary from smooth to bumpy. When we placed the cache the KVR was in great shape, the forestry road was a little rough and pretty dusty. There are some narrow stretches where you night have to give way to oncoming vehicles or to some cows – this is open grazing land. Drive slowly and enjoy the views.
