WWII RUINS Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

HalVE1LV: The reason I am archiving is I have maintained it for over 18 years and am now getting too old to carry on anymore. Sorry and I am glad I gave many a tour around Debert, N.S. and to see some of the old ruins that were there during world war II. Hal, VE1LV

Geocache Description:

Driving involved and short walking. As in all geocaching watch where you are stepping. There is new growth and many windfalls since initial placement. Make sure you use the SEED COORDINATES when calculating.

The container is an 11.4 l ice cream bucket covered with a salt bag and a store bag to keep it dry. Please replace them when finished. Wooded area, wind falls, watch your step
The virtual starting point, "SEED COORDINATE" is:
N45 25.101 W063 25.084
Apply the corrections to the SEED COORDINATES to calculate the cache location.

1. N45 23.295 W063 28.952 - What is the date on the cairn?

2. N45 26.099 W063 27.594 - What is the civic address and the 3 digit number?

3. N45 26.215 W063 27.414 - What is the civic address.

4. N45 26.122 W063 27.303 - What is the date on the monument?

(1) To find the latitude, from #1 answer subtract #2 answer and add the 3 digit number and divide by 1000.
Subtract that number of minutes of latitude from the SEED COORDINATE.
