Geocache Description:


221B Baker Street

 

 

221B Baker Street is the London address of the world's most celebrated fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, and his dedicated companion, Dr. Watson. In this game you start at 221B and travel through the streets and alleys of London picking up clues and attempting to solve the most intriguing cases Holmes and Watson have ever faced.

Each player assumes the role of Holmes and matches wits with the other players to determine who possesses the most skillful powers of deduction. Each case is represented by a card that features a crime told in story form, a selection of probable suspects and a list of locations involved in that crime. Clues are hidden throughout London, one in each of fourteen locations. Players must collect clues from each location, noting them down on their checklists as they attempt to find the answers to the questions listed on the case card.

Naturally, the crime scene will often contain vital clues, and a prudent detective always checks with the neighbors. Still, you can learn something vital almost anywhere in town. The first player to figure out the correct answers to a particular mystery or crime, return to 221B and announce the solution, is the winner.

 


 

CARW is coming the excitement brews

Another trail of caches with really nice views

The posted coordinates must one go and stand

Directions followed reward a cache in hand

From the trail this one is different then all the rest

The north you must face and the close spruce I suggest

 


 

There is a small stamp in the cache for those wishing to stamp their own books but you will need to bring an inkpad.

 

  • This long trail is paved all the way and may be travelled by foot or by bike.
  • The trail is maintained year round by the City of Edmonton
  • Dogs are welcome on a leash. Please clean up after them. 
  • Be prepared for a good walk as you must enter the trail from either end.
  • Best Parking is east of gz and along the sides at the end of the road (please do not block anything). 
  • Coming by boat is possible but you will have quite the climb and make these much more difficult then they need to be. 
  • Private property is fenced off and has "No Trespassing" signs so DO NOT climb over any fence.
  • All of the caches can be retrieved from the path side of the private fencing.

 

I hope you enjoy the area and the caches!
