Geocache Description:

You are looking for a Pill Bottle Sized Micro Container.


Aldershot’s Plains Road Village Vision (APRVV)

is a community based project aimed at revitalizing Plains Road. The main goal is to successfully convert what was an old highway into an attractive main street.

Started in the late 90’s, the “Vision” has grown to include: the City of Burlington, the Region of Halton, the Aldershot Village Business Improvement Area, the Royal Botanical Gardens, Partnering Aldershot, as well as private sector investors.

The Vision calls for constant improvement along Plains Road including: attractive new architecture, enhanced landscaping, increased retail services, proper bike lanes, wider sidewalks and appropriate bussing.  

This is just one of those areas APRVV has successfully improved

 

Now, let’s find the geocache:

First, locate the large stone at GZ with the same name as this cache.  There is a date at the top of this stone.  Call the last two digits of this date, AB, and use the formula below:

[(AB x 8) + 2] ÷ 1000 = 0._ _ _    

Now subtract your answer from the posted North coordinates

 

Next, locate the drinking fountain near the posted coordinates, and take a look at the plaque on top of it.  What is the Anniversary this drinking fountain was present to the Aldershot community by the Burlington Runners Club.  Call this number: CA, and use the formula below

[CA + 4] ÷ 1000 =  0._ _ _  

Now add your answer to the posted West coordinates

 

You now have the location for the final.  

May I suggest you walk there: 

Parking may be a problem - for some.
