This cache has been archived.

dutchmaster: BTW, the vegetation at the final really increased the difficulty level to where it was no longer "fun".

Geocache Description:

Update April 2/06 With ongoing upgrades and trail maintenance at the park, skip the first stage (at Mr Skinny) and go directly to the Big Dipper instead at: 45.11.661, 74.39.724.

The 'burgh is short for Charlottenburgh Forest Mountain Bike area, so do bring your bike with fat tires. This is a 1.5 if your walking and a 3.5 if your biking but the rewards are greater on a bike.

Parking (45.12.079, 74.39.742) on Caber Road at the sign for the forest and head to the above coordinates where Mr Skinny will have 2 sets of numbers for you. One will be bearing (magnetic) and the other the distance (not interchangable) to The Big Dipper (B D).

On your way to the big dipper turn left at "Pit Row" to save on bushwacking. At the Big Dipper, a large structure, look for the name of the cache with a 3 digit number. This is the new bearing (magnetic) your to head out on UNTIL your 500 metres from Mr Skinny (the first coords)

You don't have to be exact because the topographical feature where the cache is hidden is quite large and hard to miss and affectionately known as Mesa Verde.
