*Photo taken by Ellesche. Used without permission.

This is a 3 stage multi. You will need to visit 2 signs (stage 2 sign has gone missing so answers have been provided in the description below) along the trail. Posted Coords are for Sign 1 and Sign 2 coords are in the Additional Waypoints. Parking/trailhead is on Mississauga Rd.

Answer the 5 questions in no particular order:
A) How many lots did Church survey? Answer=168
B) When did the Forks of the Credit station close?
C) During the heyday of the railway, up to how many passenger trains were there in a day?
D) How many geese are in the picture?
E) How much did R.G. Lee pay for Deagle's electricity business? Answer=$50,000

In order to calculate the coordinate for the cache, add up all of the answers from the 5 questions above.
Now take the square root of this number, and drop the decimal places. We'll call the result X.
Add X to the decimal minutes of N43 49.033 to get the North coords.
Add X to the decimal minutes of W80 01.205 to get the West coords.
Now go find the cache!!!
