Geocache Description:

A regular cache located on the banks of the Credit River.

Note: The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates! The posted coordinates are for parking and your first clue.

This is a regular cache located on the Credit Valley Footpath and is part of a larger multi-cache project called Hiking on the Credit . You should log this cache as normal, but be sure to get the cache secret to participate in the multi-cache. The secret for this cache is located on the inside of the cache lid. The cache container is a clear tupperware type container with a white lid. Please ensure you replace it properly and cover it well.

Please be cautious of the nearby Credit River.

The Hiking on the Credit cache project: From it's headwaters near Orangeville to the mouth at Port Credit, this multi-cache will take you on the multiple trails along the Credit River. Each stage is a standalone cache and may be treated as such. If you wish to find the final cache , you must collect the secret from each of the stage caches (any order, just note which cache the secret came from).

At the posted coordinates is an official city sign indicating a bylaw. Record the bylaw AB-CD = _ _ - _ _

Proceed to the trailhead (N43°39.569' W79°53.498') and follow the blue blazes. As you walk along the trail, you will pass several features where you need to find some answers.
