Geocache Description:

The view of Blomidon and the Minas Basin from Wolfville’s Reservoir Park is outstanding. We made this an easy multi cache so you wouldn’t miss it.

Lots of people use this park to walk, ski, snowshoe, admire the view, exercise dogs, as well as to picnic, swim and fish (catch and release). The Millenium Trail connects Reservoir Park with the Waterfront Park downtown. The paths in the park are OK for strollers. New trails (Beginner, Intermediate, Advance) are for cyclists and walkers. Please observe the park guidelines.

Recommended parking: N 45°05.124’ W064°20.641’ From the parking lot take the trail to reach the start coordinates. At that location, answer these 2 questions:

  1. How many purple elephants do you see near the stairs? Call this 1-digit number "A".
  2. How many steps are there? Add that number to 441 and call this 3-digit number "BCD".

The cache is located at N 45° 05.2AA W 064° 20.BCD.

You can check your answer by adding up the last 3 digits of N (sum = 2) and the last 3 digits of W (sum = 16).

Enjoy the view!
