Geocache Description:

ENROUTE TO MOUNT STRACHAN

This is one of a three-cache series placed on the way to Mt. Strachan.


Mount Strachan is one of three mountains that make up the Cypress Ski Resort area in West Vancouver. The challenging terrain on the hike to Mount Strachan is rewarded on a clear day with views of Howe Sound and backcountry mountains as far north as Garibaldi Provincial Park. Another point of interest along the trail is the historical crash site of a Royal Canadian Navy T-33 Jet where several pieces of the aircraft still rest today. (Vancouver Trails)

This cache is located along the Collins ski run, one of the ways to access Mount Strachan. Cache is only accessible during the summer months. It is a pill bottle hidden in a tree.
