Big Bulky Barrier Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

J.A.R.S.: Picked up our BBB cache. Had a cold but lovely walk to the dam. My dog met several wonderful dogs along the way. The cache was in great shape. The logbook was filled with some interesting amusing and childish muggle entries. But it was fun to get some diary-esque entries - miss those days when most paper log entries were like journal entries - and I was pleased that they left the container in it's hiding spot and did not damage it. It's been a good 8 years (planted in 2006). Time to put this one to bed to keep our cache hides at a manageable level. Thanks everyone for your nice online log entries over the years.

Geocache Description:

1 km to the cache.


Park on Victoria Rd just south of the bridge over the Speed River. N43 35.264 W80 16.423
You’re GPS will tell you that you can get closer by going down Conservation Road but there's no (legal) parking, a very steep hill, and a river in the way.

Take the main trail along the river. About half way there, after the farmer's field, the main trail can get very muddy due to deep bicycle ruts. There’s a drier trail just in the forest that parallels the main trail. But don't get turned around, stay close to the main trail.

Once you are near the cache site you might want to walk about 25 meters ahead and enter the area via a small trail. It’ll be easier access then trying to bushwhack directly to the cache.

It’ll be difficult to get a good reading from under the tree canopy. It’s near the old rock fence and a barbed wire fence.

Winter: could be frozen into its hiding spot.

P.S. Thanks 'Inukshuk'er, for recommending this section of the trail.
