A gathering of geocachers, Sunday. May 6, 2018 from 11:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon EDST on St. Joseph Island. Follow Highway 17 to Highway 548 south across bridge & west to "10th Sideroad"; then "10th Sideroad" south to P Line; then P Line west to Hwy 548 south ("5th Sideroad"); then "5th Sideroad" south to Adcock's Woodland Gardens just before the U Line. This is a 1+ hour drive from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.
This event is a social gathering of geocachers, their friends and families as well as anyone else interested in learning about and participating in this exciting outdoor hobby/sport. It provides an excellent opportunity to meet, share stories, ask questions and exchange trackables (travel bugs, geocoins etc. in the great outdoors.
Anyone who attends the Event can post an "Attended" log, which counts as a "Find" in their geocaching statistics.
Following the 11:00 A.M. to Noon Meet n' Greet there will be a woodland "geo-walk" beginning at 12:00 noon for those interested in getting lots of fresh air, exercise and hunting for stuff. Please be aware that the terrain and difficulty ratings posted for the official event do not reflect the more rigorous conditions for the optional geowalk in the bush following the event. That portion will not be wheelchair or stroller accessible.
Bring your lunch as well as geocaching stories and trackables to share with other keen cachers.
Don't forget your bush boots, long sleeves, long pants and insect repellant for protection against wet and/or rocky ground as well as scrapes, bruises and insects. Rubber boots HIGHLY recommended this time of year.
Children are welcome and encouraged to attend.
There is an outhouse on the property on which we meet, but where the geo-walk takes place none is available, so come prepared to rough it.
Cell phone coverage at this time is limited to a weak signal from the recently installed Bell / Virgin Mobile towers. Other service providers may not currently have coverage in the vicinity of the event.
Please log your intention to attend this event.
