Flicks First – In His Honour
We wanted to reinstate his first cache to keep his memory alive.
This was within 100m of Flick’s first hidden cache and we thought he would enjoy the play on words in the new title.
When you reach the destination here take a moment to sit and appreciate the things you love about those closest to you.
All aspects of Geocaching truly brought joy to his life. Devising his hides and epic tours, his genuine appreciation for the clever hides and puzzles concocted by others, and the people he met at the events and on the trails. Even the things that annoyed him - hills, motorcycles and atvs, (do you have another good one?) were secretly fun to complain about.
We love you forever Flick/Larry/Dad.
This is his original write up.
"Mud Lake. Sounds picturesque, doesn't it? When the Welland Canal was being built (1911-1932), they needed a place for the excavated soil, and thereby created a "mud lake". In 1994, Ducks Unlimited and the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority took steps to install a fresh water pumping system and create a wetland preserve. Parking is on Elm St. at N42 55 773, W79 15 300. You can either go left or right at the entrance since the cache is almost directly on the other side of the lake. Stay on the "blue" trail. The cache is within view of the unused portion of the canal which has become a rowing club and the Welland Canal Parkway, a paved trail for joggers, roller-bladers and cyclers."
Original Hint was
(Cache is just off the trail,tucked in the notch of a fallen tree and covered with a piece of bark. As you will find, this hint isn't much help. Good Luck!!)
Classic Flick hint.
