Geocache Description:

Sailing has been a fixture on Okanagan Lake for almost a century.  Thanks to a thriving sailing community, most lake watchers are guaranteed to see one or more sailboats cruising the lake every day during the warmer months.  It’s no wonder that sailboat images are associated with businesses up and down the Okanagan Valley!

Almost every cache container is a small camouflaged lock and lock, with a few ammo-cans hidden for good luck. Like sailing, these caches are very kid friendly, so there are probably lots of goodies for trade!  Every cache container includes a pencil, although you are welcome to use your own pen if you prefer. 
 
Terrain ratings for each cache vary, so please use caution and good geosense.  There are no hides that are near cliffs or on dangerous ground, so a majority of young children should be fine looking for each cache.  There are multiple routes to almost all of the caches, so if one way looks too difficult, there’s probably an easier route to GZ! 
 
There is absolutely no need to go anywhere near private property to find any of the caches.  Please be respectful of private residences, wildlife, and as always, be muggle conscious.  It would be very much appreciated if each cache was hidden the way you found it. 
 
Almost every cache location includes an amazing view of Okanagan Lake.  If you don’t see a sailboat from one vantage spot, go on to the next.  There is no need to get wet to be part of this sailing adventure!

Actual location for this cache is:  N50 05.602 W119 27.226
