Geocache Description:

Winter Friendly

The cache is hidden by the Manitoba Electrical Museum. This cache was originally part of the Scrabble game series.

About This Cache

This carefully camouflaged, winter friendly cache can be reached from inside or outside the museum. The cache has high muggle activity from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM weekdays. Keep an eye on the trellis behind you because there could be smoking muggles watching you, and try not to look suspicious! You may take the cache to your car to sign the logbook. Satellite reception may be poor near the cache due to the adjacent structures.

An archived cache by skaven that was located near here was my very first find, and I enjoyed it so much I dove headlong into GeoCaching and have been positively hooked ever since!

If you haven't been to the Manitoba Electrical Museum before, and you've got a couple of hours to spare, you're in for a treat. The museum is located in a terminal station built in 1931 and is chock full of beautifully restored artifacts, dioramas and a wealth of history about electrification in Manitoba.

The museum hours are:

1:00 pm to 4:00 pm, Monday - Thursday (excluding holidays)

Admission is free!
