Geocache Description:

This cache is the start of your Geo-Art journey about famous rivers. These caches are all P&G's (MORE OR LESS) up country along Highway 11, Evergreen Road & Restigouche River Road. Please don't remove hanging caches, just remove lid. Should there be any errors or if you need help with anything, please feel free to let me know!!

CAUTION: A FEW OF THESE CACHES ARE ALONG COUNTRY ROADS OR ALONG THE HIGHWAY WHERE TRANSPORTS TRAVEL VERY FAST SO CHOOSE PARKING CAREFULLY!! THIS MAY REQUIRE YOU TO PARK A SHORT BUT SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE ACTUAL CACHE. THERE MAY BE LITTLE TO NO PARKING FOR SOME OF THESE CACHES IN THE WINTER SO TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION. REMEMBER, DURING SPRING MELT AND PERIODS OF EXTENDED RAIN, WEAR APPROPRIATE FOOTWEAR.


Use the hints to find the name of the Canadian river using Wikipedia then solve the missing coordinates by reading about that particular river. Sometimes some of the questions can also help with solving the name of the river. I do realize that information on Wiki can change but I will monitor the rivers periodically and along with your input will edit and adapt the cache pages as needed.

The real coordiantes are N 47° 52.426 W 066° 56.85X

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
