How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. At the coordinates, you will find a small container with an additional clue. However, in these times of COVID-19, if you wish to avoid additional touching outside the facility, please refer to the encrypted hint for the clue. You must go inside the library to find the cache and sign the log.


The cache's name, description and encrypted hint provide clues for what you seek. The physical clue seems to go missing frequently, and if this is the case, refer to the encrypted hint which has the same information. If you need further hints, contact the CO (or a caching friend) for help. Please use stealth in your hunt, and don't forget to bring your library card!

Thanks to Barbara Palmer for allowing this cache. Though apparently not original, this is the coolest host girlsndad ever made. Please don't ask for assistance as that would just not be cool and would violate point number two of our agreement: "Staff will not be expected to help in any way."

The Carlyle King Branch Library officially opened on October 16, 1979. It was the first branch library to be part of a multi-purpose civic complex. The branch was named in honour of Carlyle King who, in addition to a distinguished academic career, was actively involved in the Saskatchewan Library Advisory Council, the Saskatchewan Library Association, and the Saskatoon Public Library Board (1955-1972).

Location: Carlyle King Branch: 3130 Laurier Drive, Saskatoon, SK S7L 5J7
