Leap Day Puzzle (Nelson) Mystery Cache

This is a puzzle so don’t go to the listed coordinates. It is a simple puzzle - you just need the time to Google the information that you don’t already know. Some cachers will save time because they know it all already.

You will get a souvenir if you find a cache between February 27-29, 2016 so you may wish to find it during these three days. However, you can find it any other day of course.
