Geocache Description:


Cache is not at the posted co-ordinates.

With my passion for local history and my newly found comprehension of temporal mechanics, I have managed to finally build my Geo-Time Machine so I can travel back into yesteryear and visit all of the places I have seen in old photographs in person.

But while I was travelling through time, I realized that I was being followed...chronologically. Muggles have become aware of my temporal displacement and they were eager to see what I was up to.

Knowing that I was being intermittently followed, I found that I would be able to leave hints for other temporal cachers to find these locations and they would be able to piece together my journey through time to find the ultimate location in the region.

Fortunately, I was able to bring seven 30 caliber ammo cans with me on my journey through time. Tupperware could not go through the time matrix as it was forbidden by the Guardians of Time! The discovery of such an invention prior to it's original creation would create a rift in the space/time continuum so devastating, that our universe may explode....or maybe it would just be localized to our galaxy. However, they did not want to take any chances.

Since muggles are at the bottom of the geo-evolutionary ladder, I managed to hide these 7 caches throughout the region in different time periods, without their knowledge.

In order to find this cache, simply take a look at the photo I have included and do the following:

1. Figure out where this location is in the region
2. Go to that location and locate the area pointed out in the photo
3. Find the plaque which is at the circled area in the photo
4. Take the year on that plaque and divide by 1000
5. Take that number and add it to the following co-ordinates: N43 04.018 W79 10.686

It's that simple!



To find the final location for this series, you will need to find the clues from the 7 caches in the Cache to the Future series: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, and Eta.

Once you have the clues, simply add the clues together to get the final co-ordinates for the series final!!

Have fun and happy temporal caching!
