Geocache Description:

Charlston Connector - Another urban trail in Rossland!




"Imagine a Rossland with a network of trails interlaced throughout the neighbourhoods. Such a system would incorporate green space, pocket parks and unique geographical features providing commuting and recreational routes through town. Trails connecting schools to neighbourhoods, to the downtown core to other trails and on and on creating an outdoor network to match a community’s active outdoor personality can do a lot to bring a community together, and increase the overall experience in a town." From the Rossland Telegraph, May 2009

Charlston Connector is a short little trail, taking you from the end of 8th Ave down to the switchback on Charlston St.  From there you can walk a little ways down the street and pick up the trail again to go down to Columbia Kootenay Road.


You're looking for a nice big container, made for me by Mr LiaG.  At first he painted it bright blue , but I pointed out that wasn't a very good camo colour, so he repainted it to match its surroundings a bit better .
 


In the winter, the city pushes snow onto the beginning of the trail, making it a real challenge to get to this cache from that direction.  If you prefer, you may use our driveway (yes, this is where I live).  If you come right down to the corner of the garage, it's easy to get where you need to go.
