Geocache Description:

Finding this cache will take you to the location of Toronto's last public hanging (March 10, 1862).

Hangings were moved from the public gallows - located where you are standing now - to the Don Jail and out of public view where they continued until December 11, 1962


This little park has a fairly dark history but today it is one of Toronto's hidden green spaces. Should be a super quick find. (Only need the hint if stuck) so take some time to take some photos and reflect on what happened here. Cache is located at eye level while seated. Pay attention to the title! 

Original cache has been taken/lost so cache has temporarily been changed to a micro. Please take care to replace exactly as found The cache contains a logbook and maybe some small trinkets but please bring your own pen and replace cache where found.  

Happy Geocaching!
