As I already
had a cache at one end of this bridge it only made sense to have
another at this other end.
The cache is NOT at the published coordinates. These point towards
a possible parking spot while visiting the St Marys Bridge.

This is truly a great spot to visit on the Cranbrook to Kimberley
Trail. There are fabulous views of the St. Marys River as you cross
over on the pedestrian friendly bridge. Some interesting
out-juttings on the bridge give a new perspective to the river
rushing underneath. There are also good views of nearby hoodoos on
the edge of the river valley.
This new trail is a wonderful addition to this area and is paved
the whole length so it can be walked/roller bladed/cycled and is
handicap friendly. This cache hunt can be turned into a short amble
or, by parking further away, into a more distant hike/ride.
PLEASE NOTE THAT MOTORIZED VEHICLES, (other than motorized wheel
chairs), ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE TRAIL.
To find the correct coordinates for this hidden cache container you
will need to cross the bridge and count :…
1) The total number of concrete slabs that form the deck of the
bridge #= AB
2) The number of built out observation areas on the bridge #=
C
The cache container can be found at:-
N 49 35.(A - 2) (B – 1) (2 X C) W 115 50.(A – 1) ( C
– 1) (B + 2)
