Geocache Description:

Welcome to the periodic table of the elements powered trail. There's 114 caches to each represent each element on the periodic table (until new elements are added).

For simplicity sake only elements approved by the “International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry” will be included in this series.



Bismuth is a white, crystalline, brittle metal with a pinkish tinge. Bismuth is the most diamagnetic of all metals, and the thermal conductivity is lower than any metal, except mercury. It has a high electrical resistance, and has the highest Hall effect of any metal (that is, the greatest increase in electrical resistance when placed in a magnetic field). Source: Webelements.

The cache containers are small tubes as shown in the picture below


These containers have only a logbook inside them and no pen/pencil. Please make sure to bring a pen.

This power trail starts at Mount Henry Bridge and continues south down the freeway cyclepath. This power trail is designed for bicycles or walkers and will be extremely hard, if not impossible for drivers. There is however a car park and a playground near the start.

Please stay safe and enjoy the power trail.
