Geocache Description:

The cache is located just off a looping side trail of the Elora-Cataract Trailway in Belwood Lake Conservation Area near Fergus, Ontario.
Cache Elevation 429m

This Cache was originally released as part of the GAGAFAP II Poker Run game, but the location was so ideal, I have turned it into a real cache! If you completed the Poker Run at GAGAFAP II and Signed the Log Book, you may log this cache!

"Official" Parking Lot is located at N43 44.000 W80 20.035 and requires a user fee of $7.00 per person to enter the conservation area (Thanks for the update Dex4), but, as many others have discovered, you may enter the park on foot/bike via the Elora-Cataract Trailway for free! So the choice is yours.

Take some time to enjoy the view from the top of Shand Dam (also a good time to count your satellites...) There are a few possible trails to access the cache, so take your pick!

The cache container is a Green Camouflaged 30 Cal. Ammo Box 10" x 7" x 3" hidden in classic "Stumpy Style" You can search the obvious location first, but keep your feet flat on the floor!

NOTES:
  1. Family Friendly
  2. Bicycles allowed
