Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is found in an area in the small town of St. Williams that is somewhat unknown to people other than
locals. By following the road (the only one near the cache) to it's end, you will come to the Long Point Inner Bay, which is a really great place for ice-fishing in the winter and for various other activities during the other three seasons.
Be careful of the slippery slopes of the ravine around the cache site.
***NOTE***
Regarding the 'No Trespassing' signs:
Please respect the property as it is private (access has been granted from the property owner). Try to stick to the trail as much as possible and please leave the barricade (pile of sticks ~3ft high) in tact.

**********
Parking is available in one of two general locations: Along the roadway on the crest of the hill (be aware of the
pesky 'No Parking' signs) OR at the bottom of the hill. If you don't park at the bottom of the hill I suggest you
check it out after you've found the cache
.
Original contents of the cache include:
1.) Canada bottle opener key chain,
2.) Canada inflatable beach ball (so you can use it on one of the local beaches
),
3.) Two decks of mini Canada playing cards,
4.) Carabiner with compass,
5.) Logbook and pencils, and
6.) A TB (TB L'ORIGNAL VOYAGEUR) that I recently picked up from a nearby cache.
Cache container is a medium-sized Rubbermaid container but is heavily camouflaged, so it could be a challenge to find, depending on the time of year
.
I hope you enjoy the area, and my first of hopefully many hidden caches! THANKS!
