Geocache Description:


This multi cache will bring you to the Kanaka Creek fish fence, where returning salmon are intercepted in the fall, and a number of them are transported to the Bell-Irving Hatchery for artificial spawning. It's a nice pastoral place most of the time. Be aware of bears as they can frequent this area.

Before you can find the cache, there's a bit of local bureaucracy to wade through!

Park at the posted coordinates, then walk 45 meters south along 240th Street to a plaque commemorating the opening of the bridge over Kanaka Creek in 2010.

This is where municipal politicians get their 5 minutes of eternal fame -- or until the sign disappears, whichever comes first.

Petition these movers and shakers: Memorize the sign, then substitute values (A=1, etc.) for the letters in the following people's LAST NAMES ONLY.

 

The cache can be found at N49 AB.CDE W122 FG.HIJ

AB = Mayor Ernie: take the 4th letter.

C = Councillor Linda: take the 2nd letter

D = Councillor Craig: take the 3rd letter

E = Councillor Michael: take the 4th letter

FG = AB x 3

H = Councillor Judy: take the 4th letter

I = Councillor Cheryl: take the 3rd letter

J = Councillor Al: take the 7th letter

 

Once you have the final coordinates, walk back to the posted coordinates and follow the trail to GZ.
