Geocache Description:


This series is a dedication to a previous series that occupied this stretch of the Trans Canada Trail. Be sure to bring your own pen. From the entrance to this trail, you should be able to see part of the old oil refinery. The Trans Canada Trail, also known as “The Great Trail,” is the world's longest network of trails. It is currently 24,000 kilometres long and leads to the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic Oceans. Parts of this path are present in all 13 provinces and territories in Canada. 

Burrard Inlet has been the traditional home of Indigenous peoples for many years. In 1791, the first European explorers to visit the inlet were Juan Carrasco and José María Narváez on the Santa Saturnina. They called the area Canal de Floridablanca. In 1792, the inlet was renamed by Captain George Vancouver after his friend, Sir Harry Burrard.

This is an entrance onto The Great Trail itself that we usually use.
