Geocache Description:

This is a winter friendly series of three caches placed on the unpaved section of the Valley Trail. Although the caches are not far off the trail , for winter retrieval you will definitely need snowshoes if we continue to have the amounts of snow that we've had this winter.


I have lived in the Silverwood area since 1986. As I placed the containers on a pleasant. winter day, memories of time spent in this area came flooding into my mind, thereby resolving the issue of what to name the hides.
You can park at the end of Glen Eyre Court which is very close to the trail or park on River Front Way and then use Stewart Lane to access the trail.

In days gone by, this trail used to be groomed for cross country skiing, an activity which hubby and I enjoyed with our young boys. The City was responsible for the grooming. I can remember being annoyed when, due to budget cutbacks, they stopped doing any grooming on weekends. Then when the purse strings at City Hall got even tighter, they stopped doing it at all. Now the City has somehow come up with the money to plow the paved sections. Go figure! I wonder if they plow on weekends?

I do, indeed, enjoy this trail and hope you do too!
