Geocache Description:

This is an opportunity to see the Burritt's Rapids area and have a nice easy walk near the canal and locks. It is a multi-waypoint cache which starts at the above coordinates for Waypoint 1 (N44 58.815 W075 47.784). Read the interesting sign there to discover the reason for this cache name.

Now find the founding date of Burritt's Rapids which is on a sign nearby. Place a decimal point to the right of the leftmost digit to form a number with format X.XXX . Add this number to each of the north and west minutes of the following coordinates: N44 57.075 W075 45.942 to yield the coordinates for Waypoint 2.

Waypoint 2 is a stone Boundary Marker and 2 paces north of it is a wooden post with a very appropriate yellow number on it. Add this number of minutes to each of the north and west minutes of the following coordinates: N44 56.892 W075 45.685 to yield the coordinates of Waypoint 3.

Waypoint 3 is a signpost with a tag on it. The number on the tag is the amount of the fine that used to be on the now missing sign. Place a decimal to the left of the leftmost digit of the fine amount to yield a number with format 0.XXX . Add this number to each of the north and west minutes of the following coordinates: N44 58.846 W075 47.058 to yield the coordinates of Waypoint 4.

Waypoint 4 was a sign, now long gone. Instead, look for a brown stake just inside the cedar hedge. On it you'll find a blue label with the minute portions for the coordinates for Waypoint 5. (Assume the degree portions are N44 and W075.)

Waypoint 5 is wooden and is manmade. On it is a blue label with the minute portions for the coordinates for the cache. (Assume the degree portions are N44 and W075.)

The cache is lodged in a cedar tree, about 18 inches above ground level.

Cache Container: Camouflage coloured plastic container about 4 inches in diameter by about 5 inches high.
