In 1858, when the Colony of British Columbia was established and New Westminster was chosen as the capital city, the Columbia Detachment of Royal Engineers set up their camp in the eastern part of the city. Among the corps were many Sappers, or private soldiers. The camp became informally known as Sapperton for Sapper's Town, and even after the disbanding of the corps this section of New Westminster retained this historic name.

The cache is located at the start of a 1km walk along the beautiful and busy New West waterfront. The walk is completely level and accessible to all ages.
