The City of Kawartha Lakes (CKL) is lucky enough to have two roads numbered "35". Not only are there two roads but they run parallel to each other and are separated by less than 20 km.
The coordinates for this cache will have you stopping near the sign for CKL 35 which is west of Highway 35. Many drivers who are heading eastbound on Highway 48, or the Glenarm Road even further south, and may be coming to the area for the first time, or may not have been paying full attention, see that big "35" on the sign and turn onto Victoria Road expecting it to be Highway 35. It doesn't take long before you realize that you are not on the Highway and yet many drivers still continue northward. They are heading for Minden and the Haliburton Highlands, they think.
When they get to this intersection in Uphill, the confusion gets even worse. The road ahead of them is dirt. How can there be a section of dirt road on a Highway? Many times there have been cars sitting at the stop sign, the passengers with maps pulled out, the driver frowning at the GPS. Occasionally the driver of an 18-wheeler will be fooled and by the time they get to this intersection they need to get out to ensure that their loads are still secure after the bumps and curves of Victoria Road.
This cache is placed in honour of all those drivers who have fallen for the CKL idiocy. You keep those who live in Uphill amused!
