Skookum Bear: As the cache owner has not indicated that they have visited the cache location to replace it if it was missing, perform needed maintenance, or verify that it is still there within a reasonable amount of time, I am regretfully archiving the cache to clear it from the active cache database and open the area to new caching opportunities. If the cache owner would like to replace a cache at this location, please submit a new geocache listing and it will be reviewed under the current Geocaching guidelines.

Please do not respond to this note by sending an email reply - your response will go to an unmonitored location and disappear into the ether instead of being sent to me. If you need to contact me regarding this cache, please do so using the link on my Profile Page

Geocache Description:


The Sea Island Conservation Area (SICA) contains about 140 hectares of woodland, wetland sloughs and old field habitat north of the airport on Sea Island. It was transferred to Environment Canada as part of the compensation package for habitat loss during the construction of the third runway at Vancouver International Airport.

The cache is located along a trail (about 3 km one way) that starts at the north east corner of Sea Island on a well maintained trail that runs into MacDonald Park and the habitat compensation marsh. This is a 3 stage multi, the first two stages will direct you from one stage to the next and then to the final. The final is a small sized lock N lock and contains a log book with pencil and a few swag items.

I trust you will enjoy your walk.
