Geocache Description:

This is a multi cache setup. At the final co-ordinates, there is an ammo box with "loads of trades" for the kids. A FTF certificate to the first person who emails us first! It is located on private property. Permission is granted but please park on the road and walk in and stay in the yard area!

The surrounding area is full of farms that raise animals and crops. The farms were setup by pioneers who toiled long and hard to make these farms productive enough to support their families and the surrounding communities of Fraserwood and Gimli. Many of these settlers no longer farm but as you drive you will see the the legacy of hard work that remains with the current generation to benefit from. For more details on the local history of the area's development, read books like "Spruce, Swamp, and Stone: A History of the Pioneer Ukrainian Settlements in the Gimli Area" by Michael Ewanchuk. ISBNO-9690768-3-5. When at the cache site, stop have a look around. Listen to the wind blowing across the fields and for tractors working in the distance! It is located on private property. Permission is granted but please park on the road and walk in and stay in the yard area!

Congrats to RivertonTeamJohnson for being FTF!
