This multi is takes you through a little history of the Fredericton Fire Department (est 1817). The image to the right contains a link to the Fredericton Firefighters Online Museum . I encourage you to take a look. See the stories and photos from the 1800's, see Fredericton's Fire Horses as well as our first fire engines.
It is a two part Multi, but you'll need to make two stops for coordinates on the way (see waypoints below). If you are travelling by bicycle, you should be able to do it in an hour with little trouble.
At the site of the posted coordinates (on the UNB fitness trail), take one of the instruction sheets with you. You can park at UNB or at a nearby apartment building at 9 Forest Hill Road (less than 100m away). Use the information provided to get to the actual cache site, which is in O'Dell Park. There are two stops on the way to the final cache site.
Cachers are asked to keep trades within the Fire Service theme. The cache contains some doubles if you don't have a trade item.
