Geocache Description:


This should be an easy one. What you are looking for is a brass cap which is mounted on a short pier. This cap is number one of 5737 control stations systematically distributed throughout Canada to provide high accuracy absolute gravity measurements. These measurements will be used for post-glacial rebound studies, contributions to climate modelling, and crustal motion studies.

All you have to do is find the cap and answer two questions:

1. What is the number on the cap?
2. What are the numbers on the monument shown in the picture?

Please do not post the answers on this site, you can email them to me at wildways@shaw.ca
