One of a series of caches along what used to be a light rail line connecting Guelph and Toronto.
*** Original container was muggled so it has been replaced but relocated a bit farther from the line of fire. ***
The trail on the south side of the Eramosa River is the former right-of way of the Guelph-Toronto Radial Line, one of the Toronto Radial Railways. The Guelph terminus was at the corner of what is now Gordon and James streets, near Marianne's Park.
This trail runs through property now owned by the Guelph Cutten Club and is open for trail hikers all year round. As the posted signs note, summer trail walkers will have to watch out for golf balls. There is no need to tresspass on the adjacent fairway to find the cache.
Parking can be found at the Guelph-Limehouse trailhead (Victoria Road just south of the Eramosa River Bridge) or along James Street.
For those of you looking for a more interesting walk than a simple out and back from either parking, the Eramosa River Trail runs along the north bank of the river. You can make it a loop hike using the Victoria Road bridge on the east end, and the Gordon Street and Covered Bridge on the west end.
This could be the most interesting part of the trail - at least in golf season. There are signs posted warning trail users to wait until the nearby tee deck is clear before proceeding along the trail. I've found over a half dozen lost balls while placing and maintaining this cache so keep your head up at all times.
