After 11 Years civilization has moved in closer to the Lemon Creek Rest Area and the location where the original cache was located is now behind a fence on private property.
Although this cache doesn't include a clue we felt it was an important part of the series so we decided to replace it within the rest area.
The Silvery Slocan Heritage Tour is approximately 235kms long. Be prepared for breath taking senery as you take a step back in time.
The tour will take you through the towns of Nelson, Kalso, New Denver, as well as through the "Valley of the Ghosts". The loop can be driven in four hours - with NO CACHING. You MIGHT be able to find the series of caches in one day but we strongly suggest that you spend two days as there are so many things to see and do along the way.
Lemon Creek - located along Hwy 6 in the beautiful Slocan Valley is said to have had the best placer gold in the Silvery Slocan. The cache is located at the Lemon Creek Rest Area, just a short walk from parking. There are picnic tables if you want to bring along a picnic lunch. You are looking for a pop bottle blank.
There are 14 caches that you will need to visit - in any order - to find "Silvery Slocan Heritage Tour - Pay Dirt".
At ten of the cache sites you will find a clue that is written on the first page of the log book as well as on the lid. Write this clue down. Four of the caches do not have a clue - but with the exception of this one, we're not going to tell you which caches those are.
Since this segment is also a standalone cache, you are of course welcome to just log this cache if you don't have time to take the complete tour.
