Geocache Description:

There's quite a bit of gravity at the end of the line!

The posted co-ordinates will lead you to a rather unique feature for a GO Station to have.

If you look around here, you should find a marker for the Canadian Gravity Standardization Net, which is a type of Geodetic Survey marker. Your first step will be to find the marker, and also the three digit number contained on it.

This will be a fun job for you if you come during rush hour, or on a Tuesday night (the marker can be blocked on Tuesday nights). Watch as the muggles try to figure out what on earth you are doing.

When you have the number, divide it by 1000 and add it to:

N 43 38.704
W 079 54.617


The result will lead you to the micro. Please try to be discreet lest the cache get muggled. You will need to bring some form of pen or pencil, as the container is way too small to facilitate one of these.
