Geocache Description:


Geocaching in the Region of Waterloo

Ayr


Region of Waterloo Library

This is a series of geocaches found in the branches of the Region of Waterloo Library. All caches in this series are placed with the permission and cooperation of Library staff.

This cache is only accessible during normal business hours of the library. These hours can be found on the RWL website. All branches are CLOSED on Sundays. Hours of operation vary by branch.

This is a Letterbox Hybrid cache. The posted coordinates will bring you to a feature outdoors where you need to collect some information. The geochecker will reveal your next steps. The cache container is located inside the library and contains a small stamp which you can use to mark your own letterbox stamp book. If you have a stamp of your own, you may include an impression of it in the logbook. Do not remove the stamp from the cache! An ink pad is not supplied in the cache, but the stamp is pre-inked.

RWL GeoTrail Challenge

Region of Waterloo Library GeoTrail Challenge: Visit any branch of the Region of Waterloo Library to obtain your GeoTrail passport. Find all ten geocaches at RWL branches and collect code words from each. When you've got them all, visit a librarian at any branch and present your completed passport. Upon verification, the librarian will give you a FREE souvenir wooden token for completing the GeoTrail Challenge as well as a card with a code word for the final geocache in the series, GC896YP. Are you up to the challenge?

How to Find this Cache: At the posted coordinates you will find a sign. In the bottom corner (left or right depending on which side you're looking at) is a label with two large white words. Identify those two words and enter them into the geochecker below. The geochecker will tell you how to find the cache container.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

Photos are welcome, but please do not post any spoilers such as a photo of the outdoor feature, the area where the cache can be found, or the Dewey Decimal Number on the cache. Any such logs and/or photos will be removed without prior notice. The cache is large enough to hold some tradeable items, but please do not stuff it. As you will be inside the library, please be respectful of other patrons while you are enjoying this cache.
