This cache has been placed for KACHE 4, an
annual event hosted by the Kingston and Area Geocachers (GC3573R).
This cache should not be found or logged until after 6:00 a.m.,
November 5th 2011.
The theme of this year’s event is
"Things that make Kingston Special" and the city's proximity to the
Cataraqui Trail, one of the longest rail trails in Ontario, is
certainly one of those special things. Beyond the Kingston Area,
Ontario is full of great rail trails and the caches along this
section of the Cataraqui Trail – once the Kingston, Napanee
and Western Railway – recognizes some of them.
The 12 km Goderich – Auburn Rail Trail
begins in Goderich and ends near, you guessed it, Auburn.
It’s a former CPR rail line. We’ve never been here, but
Lake Huron is famous for its sunsets and while Goderich was hit
hard by a tornado during the summer of 2011 it remains a beautiful
community with a stronger spirit now than maybe ever
before.
There are about 10 caches along the trail at
this point – traditionals that are nicely spaced out by
Trapperr. There are another bunch of caches along the Maitland
Trail, which connects to the Goderich-Auburn
