Another Hollow in the Natural Heritage System
With further development surrounding the Natural Heritage System, Milli and I were able to explore another part of this wonderful location. We found a few cool things. Lots of hollow logs in this system, hopefully nothing is taking up residence in there.

The following information has been taken from the Town of Oakville website, and gives a brief description of the Natural Heritage System, in which this cache is hidden.
Oakville’s Natural Heritage System
The Natural Heritage System, which runs through the New Communities of Oakville, is made up of about 900 hectares of protected land (including woodlots, open fields, watercourses and valleys) and reflects the commitment of landowners, the town and Conservation Halton to protect and enhance the natural environment.
Keeping more people close to home, work and play is the road map for the New Communities of Oakville. The neighbourhoods will be walkable and transit-friendly. And the integration of a network of natural and open spaces with vital neighbourhood centres will create a more livable, compact urban community with a greater mix of housing and employment opportunities. Check back for more information as we start to shape the New Communities of Oakville.
The Natural Heritage System is located in the four new communities of Oakville: 407 West, Sixteen Hollow, Glenorchy and Joshua's Meadows.
In comparison:
Stanley Park in Vancouver is about 400 hectares.
Central Park in New York City is about 340 hectares.
High Park in Toronto is about 160 hectares.
Good Luck and Happy Caching!
