Geocache Description:

Spend lots of time as a young boy walking the rail banks hunting frogs etc. Experience plenty of critters encounters along the way,so we decided to dedicate Con.311 section of the trail with an all critter theme. These will be all easy finds.

Welcome to the Lakeshore Trail (LST),was the site of a railroad spur line that junction off the old main line in Comber and ran through Staples on its way to Leamington Ontario.This spur was necessary to provide a junction of rail for Heinz factory in Leamington Ontario to box car their can and bottle products on the train known locally as the "Leamington Flyer" but not because of its speed of (10 mph) which is the maximum for the Leamington Branch. The Leamington Flyer was only engine, used to tote about twenty box cars for this 14 mile junction from the Heinz plant to the main rail line in Comber. The rails have long been torn out. Now reopen as a country view walkway/bike trail. This creates a continuous trail network basically from Comber Ontario to the end of the Greenway up near Amherstburg Ontario covering roughly 63.5 km. The only thing missing and needed, for these new sections is being loaded with caches.
