Geocache Description:

September 27, 2014 - Cache used to be called "Why Create Protected Areas". Changed to correspond with the new plaques throughout the park. Same cache.
Another cache that compliments my Blue Sky - Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park cache. Park at N50 54.041 W119 34.143, view the many displays available and acquaint yourself with the park prior to your hunt. Brochures are available at the Information Centre.

Read my notes on the Blue Sky cache information sheet for a description of the park. Follow the "Phil Rexin Trail" and this cache, like the other ones I have hidden in this series, will be found very close to the trail. Cross country travel is not required or encouraged. The trail system is accessed from the main parking lot and all of the caches are hidden in an area south to east of the parking lot. Travel clockwise or counter clockwise, staying on the main trail and you will not only learn lots, you will have an enjoyable trek through a beautiful forest of large cottonwoods, big cedars, majestic firs, tall birch and a variety of other great trees and bushes.

For part of your walk you will have an opportunity to view the mighty Adams River and some of it's pools and offshoots where the famous Adams River Sockeye Salmon come to spawn.. In season (early October) you will see this remarkable feat of nature unfold before your eyes. Come an enjoy this great park.
