Geocache Description:

This single stage "offset" multi-cache will take you to Saltspring Island. The story goes something like this:

This cache commemorates the event cache "Lunch at the Spit" which was supposed to be a Saturday cacher's Lunch at Sidney Spit. Unfortunately, the dock had been pulled up for the winter, so not having a dingy with us (we expected to tie up at the dock) we were unable to go ashore to have lunch at the spit.

We (Landsharkz, Min3D, D-Tour and NightFox) decided to go over to Fulford Harbour for lunch instead. So, as with our event... this cache starts at Sidney Spit, and takes you to Saltspring Island.

Unlike us, you don't need to go to the Spit to do the projection, but if you want to, its a great spot to spend a sunny afternoon (bring a dingy if its not summer)!

The posted coordinates will take you to a lighthouse on Sidney Spit. From there, go 8.23437 nautical miles at a bearing of 328.947 degrees around the round world that we live on. Here you will find the cache.

If you want to check your coords before you go, feel free to e-mail us for confirmation.


Congratulations... Geoscavenger was First-to-Find This Cache on November 17 2005
