True Patriot Love Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Skyecat: Unfortunately the plaques are being relocated for up to 3 years during re-construction of the Brock Street bridge so I am going to archive this cache since 3 years is too long to disable it.

Geocache Description:


The Brock Street Bridge in Whitby is one of a number of bridges that span the Highway of Heroes where large numbers of people have gathered over the years to pay their respects.

This is a short two stage multi that will bring you to one of the many plaques that have recently been placed on behalf of the province.  This plaque was dedicated on behalf of the heart and soul of the community of The Town of Whitby & The Greater Durham Region.

At the posted coordinates take note of the date the plaque was dedicated.

For the north, reverse the last two digits in the year = YX.  Subtract this number from the posted north coordinate to get north coordinate for the final location.   (Year 20XY)   N43° 51.988 – .0YX = AAA

For the west, take the two digits that represent the month, add the single digit that represents the day and multiply by 12. Add 2 to get BBB {(month + day)x 12} + 2 = BBB

The final cache is located at N43° 51.AAA W78° 56.BBB
