GC3MB5T (13) Not At Home (Traditional Cache) in British Columbia, Canada created by t20t

This cache has been archived.

Alispice: It is with regret that I am archiving the majority of the caches in this series. The area was severely damaged by a wildfire, and I do not know when it will be safe to enter the trails again - this part of the park is still closed at this time. I believe many of these caches were lost in the fire. Perhaps someone can re-do the series in the future when this area becomes accessible to the public again. For now, I am leaving numbers 1 and 2 in the series, and will attempt to make the final mystery cache a traditional, as it is not in the burn area. Thanks to all who visited these caches, and to t20t for hiding them in the first place. I'm so sorry it had to end this way.

The Hobbit or There and Back Again Chapter 13 - Not At Home

While Smaug is away attacking Lake-town, Bilbo and the dwarves explore the caves and take treasure. Bilbo finds the Arkenstone but doesn't tell anybody. Thorin gives Bilbo a suit of mithril mail armour; which is hard for weapons to pierce.

BRING WATER, energy foods, sunscreen, bug spray, wear a hat, and good hiking boots, shorts not recommended (path may be overgrown depending on time of year.) NOT RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, due to steep slopes and sharp drop offs. Also remember your surroundings, rattle snakes, bears, and cougars may be in the area.

All 19 Chapters will take about 4-6 hours to complete (slow and steady hiking). The hike is a very steady and steep incline, you will be hiking 1632 feet uphill, and is 10 km's including return.
