Geocache Description:

Cache is a small camo-d lock-n-lock that has a logbook and various dollar store trinkets. Please bring your own writing instrument to sign the logbook and replace as found. Parking has been waypointed.

I have dozens of caches hidden on the Bruce Trail in different parts of Ontario. The following is a bit about the trail. I got this information from the Bruce Trail Conservancy website.

Today over 8,000 acres of Escarpment land are secured and managed by the BTC. This preserved land is cared for by Bruce Trail volunteers, with the support of a small BTC staff.

Many people don't realise that the Bruce Trail is not permanently secure, and that 50% of the Bruce Trail corridor is still vulnerable to development.

The BTC is working to secure this corridor by receiving donations of land or by purchasing land.

Each year the BTC spends from $1 to $2 million on land purchases, preserving hundreds of acres of Escarpment landscape and Bruce Trail corridor forever.

These acquisitions protect a diverse array of landscape types - wetlands, karst topography, open meadows, caves, towering scarp edges and lush forests - all within the Niagara Escarpment UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.

Congratulations to Shae-Lynn on the FTF!
