The first time my fellow geocacher and I walked through this park, we were only here to enjoy the newly-fallen snow. Geocaching has helped us find the most wonderful trails, and relatively close to the GTA.
Walking along (or more like shuffling in 15-20 cm of the white stuff!), we fell in love with the woodlands named in honour of Bob Hunter, the Co-founder of Greenpeace.
Returning home, I looked up the area, and ... what? No cache here? Time to change that!
Nearing the end of winter, my caching partner and I returned to scout possible locations. This spot is chosen because as we were making our way along the trail, we spied a groundhog on the other side of Little Rouge Creek. I scared it off (and received a glare from my partner) because my hiking was a bit too noisy for the timid creature.
According to a Parks Canada representative, there are otters, groundhogs and mink here too!
So enjoy nature ... and trek silently.
At time of this publication, the Park is under the jurisdiction of the Toronto Region Conservation Authority. However, action is currently being taken to include it in the Rouge National Urban Park as part of Parks Canada. Permission has been granted.
The cache is a smaller-sized small, and original contents include some winter holiday-themed stickers, a collectible Canadian quarter, a Canada 150 button and patch, personalized swag, two pencils, and the log.
UPDATE: May 12, 2019: took 3 new readings with GPSr and one more with phone. Based on those readings, my old reading, and the new coordinates suggested by Barnie's Band of Gold, coordinates will be updated.
