An Inukshuk is a pile of stones arranged in the shape of
a human being. The Inuit and Tuniit (Inuit from Cape Dorset) used
the Inukshuk to mark trails, indicate caches of food, nearby
settlements and good places to hunt or fish. I guess that could
have been one of the earliest forms of geocaching!
The Inukshuk is in plain sight from the road. It is on a
rock ledge, back about three meters from the south edge of the road
and about two meters above grade.
So, here's your task:
- Find the Inukshuk
- Take a picture of it -- preferably with you in the picture
- Upload it (the picture, not the Inukshuk
Here's the help:
- There is a wonderful view of a lake if you sit next to the
Inukshuk.
- It is not hidden in any way, just not really obvious.
New Info
- Inukshuk has disappeared!
- If you visit and there is no Inukshuk here's your
chance to make one.
-
- Look at the pictures of Inukshuk
- Gather some stones
- Make a new Inukshuk
- Post a picture of what he looks like now
- This way, you can keep him alive
I would like to thank Gil & Ani for updating me on the
Inukshuk's condition (and the correct co-ordinates -- which are now
listed).
I was going to archive this cache, but I think it would be
better if I opened up a request for Pike's Peak cachers to keep him
alive. In fact, if you get there and there is an
Inukshuk there already, build another -- we can create a
whole family.
