Angus Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Cache-tech: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache.
When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link (Mine) across the top and then click on this cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
Cache-tech

Geocache Description:

Angus lives in Soper Creek Park in Bowmanville. A Bowmanville landmark can be found just north of this cache, it's worth a visit if you have the opportunity.

The container is a long, steel tube with tight sealing lid. The cache has been filled with lions, tigers and an assortment of wildlife.

There are two distinct routes to Angus:

From the South - Driving down Hwy#2, turn south onto Simpson Ave. and turn into Soper Creek Park at the Visual Arts Centre. Parking coordinates 43 54.436N, 078 40.134W. The walk is fairly easy, approximately 400m through a field or along Soper Creek.

From the North - Driving down Hwy#2, park directly across from Bowmanville's "claim to fame" at parking coordinates 43 54.741N 078 40.106W. The walk is a bit more challenging along a narrow and less traveled trail which crosses a small creek, but this route is half the distance (about 200M).

Please be mindful of burrs and nettles during the summer months. If you stick to the trail your exposure to the nastier plants will be limited.
