Geocache Description:


PTA Tour

Hope Regional Airport

The FVRD Regional Airpark (Hope) is located at 62724 Airport Road and is owned and operated by the Fraser Valley Regional District. It boasts one of the best turf runways in the world.

This tour will take you around  the north side of the airport.  There are no hidden caches until the final cache, you will be traveling on a community road.  YOU DO NOT NEED TO OR SHOULD GO ON ANY PRIVATE PROPERTY.  ALL INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE BY STAYING WITHIN 1 METER OF THE ROAD.  PARK CAREFULLY.  Enjoy the tour and watch for some interesting structures on your trip.

An approximate time frame to do this multi cache is 1.0 hours.

Please be aware that due to overhead wires, airport equipment, some locations may see off slightly.  Use your geosenses.  There is NO need to climb any fences.  Locations specifically "bouncy" are E, G, Final.  I took plenty of readings average the best.
