Geocache Description:


This multi was originally posted at a sculpture near the Golden Manor, but has been moved here as of October 2023 due to construction at the Golden Manor. The final location has not moved, but the instructions for finding it have.

To find the final location, you will need to find some information on the sign posted at the trailhead to Scout Rock Trail. The cache is located at N 48° 29.ABC W 081° 20.DEF

A: first digit in the number of the highway along the top of the map
B: add the 7th and 8th digit in the phone number posted on the sign
C: last digit of the phone number posted on the sign
D: # of letters in the first word at the top left of the sign (in French) 
E: # of whole km to next trailhead (ignore decimals, do not round up)
F: # of lakes shown on the map

You can check your coordinates here.

The final is not far from the posted coordinates, but it will still be quite a challenge that is not for everyone. The experience should be somewhat reminiscent of the gold mining for which Timmins is renowned.

You might want to bring some rubber boots and avoid the area after recent rain. Have fun!
