Geocache Description:

This is the third penguin cache along this trail. You need a number and letter from the inside lid. Use this to help you find the final "Emperor Penguin"


Congrats to Carnigrewal on the FTF

Write the letter/number down for the final cache. I did the best I could with coordinates, but there is some good cover in here, so I added a hint for your help, if needed.

The Gentoo penguin is one of my favorite penguins. I visited the Bio-Dome in Montreal in 2012. One of these penguins was sitting on a rock ledge and when I went over to the glass he swam over to see me, so I named him Seymour (get it? See more....lol). Anyways, he swam around for about 15 minutes in front of me and we had a great chat.

The Gentoo Penguin is a larger penguin. They average 80cm and weigh 5kg. They live in the Antarctic Peninsula and the islands around the tip of South America. There are about 320,000 breeding pairs in the world
