A "Ross"-tic View of the Don Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

RCA777: A few weeks ago, I went back to the GZ to perform MORE maintenance on this cache and found the entire area was VASTLY different. The hiding place was gone and the area had eroded away. I found another hiding place... but garbage in the area suggested that it might be used by youngsters as a hang-out. I put a new cache (well camoe'd) in a new spot. My hope is that it would last a few weeks... and then I would enable the cache. Well -- the cache is gone. The area is littered with garbage and as such, is no longer as enjoyable to visit as it was when I first found this cache. I adopted this cache from Jamboree... and I had hoped to keep it going for them. Thanks to all that visited and most of all, to Jamboree for placing the cache. It was a great regular cache in a great spot; thanks to all that visited.

Geocache Description:


The cache is in a tupperware container with a blue lid.
Located just off a trail, beware of muggles.
Enjoy the scenery.

This extensive parkland, located in the West Don River valley north of Finch Avenue, was assembled in 1972 primarily for flood control purposes.
The park was named after Dr. G. Ross Lord, P. Eng., in recognition of his service as the chairman of the former Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority from 1958 to 1972.
He advanced the cause of conservation for a further six years as a provincial appointee at the Authority.
Dr. Lord was also one of Canada's foremost hydraulic and flood control engineers.
