“Ethennonnhawahstihnen’ - where they had a good, beautiful life” — The Wendat Nation
Formerly Woodsy Park, Ethennonnhawahstihnen' park was renamed to honour the Wendat Nation who first inhabited the area. Pronounced "etta nonna wasti-nuh", this is a central hub for the new community that ison property that used to be a distribution centre for the store next door.. With a large playground, sports field, skating pad, and paths for walking and meeting the neighbours, this park is a great addition for all visitors, young and old alike. Soon a community centre and library will be opened.
Enjoy some of the park's features and art installations as you complete the multi-cache. The posted coordinates hopefully brings you to a map of the park. Use this as a guide as I found getting coordinates for the various stages to be unreliable at times. I named the stages as they are described on the map to make it easier for you to find your way.
- Immediately south of the posted coordinates is the Ice Skating Rink / Reflecting Pond. On east and west ends of the rink/pond, there are bent metal poles that form a "wall". How many of the poles are there in the blue padded area? If both ends of the metal poles are in the blue area, this would count as two. A
- Maple Leaf Trellis: How many maple leaves? B
- Maple Leaf Fence: The fence surrounds the sports field. How many light poles are there for lighting the field and how many lights on each pole? Multiply the two numbers. C
- Cracked Ice: How many triangles are there that do not touch the border? If a triangle is formed using the frame, do not count these. Only need to count the triangles on one side. D
X = (10×D - A - B - C) ÷ 1000
Y = (3×C - B) ÷ 1000
For the final north coordinates, add X to the posted coordinates. For the final west coordinates, add Y to the posted coordinates.
Congratulations to KaiteeDee for the FTF!!
