Geocache Description:





This is the Final Cache of a new series called SIBLING RIVALRY! It is a multi-cache but don't forget to bring the code words from the log books of the other 6 caches so that you can find this final!


The coords listed at the top of this page are only for the first stage of this cache. You will need to find three other stages in order to get to the final!

Having 5 siblings can be fun, especially when the oldest and youngest are seperated by 24 years! Since caching is a family tradition, we wanted to place a series of caches with a "sibling" theme. All caches can be done on their own and in any order.Other caches in this series are...

(GCVQTE).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 1 - Family Trails
(GCVQVQ).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 2 - Family Plots
(GCVQWC).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 3 - Family Feast
(GCVZM7).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 4 - Family In-Law
(GCVZND).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 5 - Family Playground
(GCWC3D).....Sibling Rivalry Series: Cache 6 - Family Fun Nite

Cache #7 - Family Final Search


This cache will take you on a nice little drive(about 3 mins. from stage 1 to stage 2) and a really nice short hike through a section of the Bruce Trail that is seldom travelled. Hints have been provided for all stages in case you can't find the caches. However, the hints won't help you to determine the actual coords for each stage. You have to visit all the other caches in the series to get the proper coords.

The Containers and the Clues
At each Stage, 1 through 3, you are looking for a camo'd micro cache. These caches will contain 3 sets of coords for the next stage. To determine which coords are correct, you will need to know the code word from one of the other caches in the series. Once you have found Stage 3, it will lead you to the final. The final cache is a camo'd, large plastic container filled with goodies and two TB's.

Please be sure to remove all the caches CAREFULLY and place them back EXACTLY how you found them. Some will be very easy to find if not hidden correctly. One could be very difficult to recover should it be dropped below it's hiding spot, especially in Winter.

The property that the final cache is on is part of the Bruce Trail System but on PRIVATE PROPERTY used with the owners permission. With this in mind, please be extra kind to your surroundings as this is a beautiful section of the trail and we wouldn't want to lose it.

Enjoy the Final!
