Geocache Description:

This cache was placed in honor of the late J. D. Salinger (1919 to 2010)

Jerome David "J. D." Salinger was an American author, best known for his 1951 novel "The Catcher in the Rye", as well as his reclusive nature. His last original published work was in 1965. Salinger died of natural causes at the age of 91 on January 27, 2010, at his home in Cornish, New Hampshire.


Where in Winnipeg would be an appropriate hide location for a cache dedicated to the author of this iconic American novel? You don't know? Well, you'll have to go to the posted co-ordinates to see for yourself.


I hope J. D. will forgive me for this stretch in logic. If you figure out why I placed it here, please don't give the specifics in your log.


The initial cache contents are 2 pencils, a sharpener, a log book and FTF certificate. It's a small cache so there is a little room for tradables and trackables

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, blank or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
