Geocache Description:

A cache series on the abandoned railbed of The Bytown and Prescott Railway



Please do not drive to the caches on this trail.

This series of 17 caches is placed between County Road 21 from Spencerville in the north, and Glen Smail Road in the south. They are all placed close to the rail line.

History Tidbit: The rail line was by Walter Shanly, the distinguished civil engineer who would eventually become a Member of Parliament and exercise considerable influence in nineteenth century railway matters. In these days of GPS satellite systems it is difficult to imagine how surveys were carried out 150 years ago.

All the micro caches are winter friendly, but some of the larger ones are not.

This section of the trail should be easy to navigate by mountain bike, and is in quite good shape.
The trail is part of the snowmobile trails in the area.

Good luck and have fun!
