A great urban location, frequented by joggers,bikers, walkers.
The kayak access appears to be suspended during the huge re-working
of the area, but I suspect they will be back in the coming year or
two. Great spot for a walk around, so if it's a nice day go for it.
Then again, a rainy day, or winter is easier, as a warm sunny
summer day will be wall-to-wall people. The cache position has
bounced around a few times, first when the construction removed all
the trees and landscape from the initial location, and now a recent
disambiguation move (as wikipediers would say) to avoid another
cache that showed up after we respositioned this. Coordinates are
SPOT ON as verified with satellite photos - but remember your GPS
can only typically lock to within a few metres. Not so bad a spot
at night as was, but still isolated. BRING YOUR OWN PENCIL/PEN.
NB.
I often get reports of a full log book, when there is a ton of
space still left in the book. Don't be shy... use front and back of
the paper. These little caches would need an update each week if
you don't.
The UMB hatrick is once again fully in position. It's been up
for about 5 years, though some downtime for one of the caches
occurs every couple of years if one goes missing. PLEASE don't move
the caches - some players get convinced they would be better
somewhere else - that makes maintenance harder. If you found, it
others can. ALSO - even if it LOOKS plainly visible, muggles
generally won't see it unless they know it's there, so you don't
need to invent new hiding techniques. Enjoy the architecture, and
the ghosts of the former neighbourhood. (NB. No fence climbing,
deep-bushwhacking, swimming or dangerous balancing is required)
Note - Updated difficulty to 2.0, as it's slightly less
difficult than it was earlier (But there's a nice muggle screen
now!) You can do this one pretty easily without a handheld GPS, the
GoogleMaps/Satellite images work well and the coord's are bang on
within about 24 inches.
