Geocache Description:


Welcome to Deer Lake Park!

A Multi Plier cache - Mission: to flood the Lower Mainland with Multi caches to find! 

 

This park has many good trails and many interesting geocaches to find.  We hope you have fun hiking along the West Forest Trail.

*** UPDATE *** This multi has been completely re-done on Nov 1, 2022. The final coords are the same but all the signs have been redone so please refresh the description of the cache before trying to solve.

This is a 2 stage multi.

Please replace exactly as you have found it and make sure it blends in as best as you can. 

Here are the final coordinates: N49 14.ABC W122 59.DEF

At the start of the trailhead there used to be a big trailhead sign (see pic above!) but it has been taken down.  There is a pole with 3 small signs further east just at the beginning of the trailhead near the metal tube fence. Use these signs to solve the coords:

The "Dogs must be leashed" sign will be used to solve the 3 remaining North coords. (letters A = 1, B = 2 etc ; dashes are not minus signs)

A = 3 - 2 - 1

B = Burnaby bylaws 1st bylaw, 3rd number

C = 4 - 3 - 1

Checksum A + B + C = 7

The "Bear sightings in this area" sign will be used to solve the 3 remaining East coords. The Caution line is line 1.

D = 4 - 3 - 1 

E = 2 - 1 - 3

F = 8 - 1 - 7  ((on the left side of sign)

Checksum = D + E + F = 13

Good luck!
