Geocache Description:


This is a simple virtual cache that requires you to visit the following locations and complete the specified task at each one. It should only take about 10-15 minutes and is not designed to be difficult. I hope you have fun and learn something new! smiley


White Rhino (Posted Coordinates) 

Upload a photo in your log that includes the White Rhino sculpture in the background. This can be a selfie or simply a photo with a personal item.

This public sculpture by Tom Benner has stood in the same place since 1986. A black band was temporarily placed around the rhino's foot two years ago when Benner passed away. He visited the piece often throughout his life to make repairs. 


Paul Peel (Virtual Stage One)

Which two paintings by Paul Peel are mentioned by name on this plaque? Send your answer in a message to me.

Paul Peel (1860-1892) was born in London. He became one of the first Canadian artists to receive international recognition in his lifetime. One of his paintings, The Young Biologist is shown above. 


Wolf Sculpture Garden (Virtual Stage Two) 

What do all the photographs in the garden have in common according to the plaque? Send your answer in a message to me. 

As The Crow Flies is a 2005 garden installation by Ron Benner. It's constantly evolving and looks much different depending on the time of year you visit. This six minute video by the artist is very interesting if you'd like to learn more!


Stone Seats (Virtual Stage Three) 

 

(OPTIONAL) Upload a photo in your log of you or a personal item near these funky new stone seats to celebrate completing the virtual!

This photo is optional because it's currently difficult to upload more than one photo per log on mobile devices. 


Mandatory Logging Requirements Recap
