The streams that feed into the
Chilliwack River from it's beginnings at the outflow of Chilliwack
Lake until it enters into the Mighty Fraser, are as varied as the
landscapes that make up the Chilliwack River Valley
itself.
This cache will take you to the
Confluence of Chipmunk Creek and the Chilliwack River. Unlike most
spots along these creeks and rivers this one is without the garbage
left behind by thoughtless users of the land.
When the cache was placed the waters
were crystal clear and flowing fairly strongly with the added water
from the start of melting snow in the higher elevations, the water
is cold, clean and home to several species of Trout in this part of
the Chilliwack River. There is no fishing allowed between the fish
hatchery and Chilliwack Lake so don't bring your rod to this
location, instead bring a picnic lunch and plan to spend some time
enjoying the tranquility and beauty of this spot.
The cache is a 30 Cal. Ammo can painted
camouflage and contains a small set of sockets, a tape measure,
emergency blanket, bike lock, a Ninja Turtle, logbook, pen and
pencil and some other trade items. If you are trading please trade
equally and return the cache as you found it.
Please enjoy the hike to the cache,
respect the area and try to leave no trace of your having been
there, enjoy "your" visit and let it remain pristine for others to
enjoy.
There is no FTF prize, I hope the
location will be reward enough for visiting this cache. You can
access the cache with any vehicle you do not need a
4x4.
