Geocache Description:

This series challenges you to fulfill a number of tasks, not the least of which is to hike all the way from the Shoreline – aka Burrard Inlet – to the Skyline, which in this case is the top of Skyline Trail in North Vancouver. Traversing a total distance of 8 kilometres, you will face an elevation gain of about 880 metres. The wise cacher will split this adventure into manageable sections. The rest of you should carry plenty of food and water.

Along the way, you will discover a few caches that contain clues you need to collect, others that are not what they seem to be, and a couple that we hope will make you smile.

MOSQUITO CREEK TRAIL WELCOMES CYCLISTS RIDING UPHILL ONLY BETWEEN MOSQUITO CREEK PARK AND PALISADE DRIVE.

This one has been changed due to muggling of the unique attachment as well as the inner container that was supposed to keep the log dry. It had been working right up until someone decided they wanted that inner container for themselves. You can still have all sorts of fun in this area. There's the yellow bridge that crosses Mosquito Creek, and there are more trails on the other side. Of course, that also means more muggles coming at you from more angles so keep your wits about you!

We hope you enjoy this series. Remember to cache safely by always being aware of your surroundings, and please put the cache back as you found it.

EDIT April 3/20: There is a fresh new container in play here, and it very nicely fits the name of this cache to a "T". Or should I perhaps say "K"? If I was to fill this new L&L with water, it would weigh exactly one KILOgram!
