Bring a camera and enjoy the tour. That being said rather then post a picture of this cache and location, to make it that much harder, please post a picture of a different cache find. The picture can be from any cache found in CANADA!, just not of this cache.
Congrats to Traveller2005 on being FTF, dinner and beer on me!

GCYK96 (FINAL CACHE)
Or follow this link for the bookmark
Team eelow&beelow from Ontario came up with the idea for a Canadian multi-cache series that would take you across Canada with stops at each of the capital cities of Canada. The final placement was a team effort of hidnseek and geosquid. Please email me before looking for the final so I can confirm it is okay and put a special prize in. After finding all the clues and travelling here, I want to make sure the cache is okay between long periods of finds. This cache is rated 5/5 due to the fact you have to find 10 other caches but really is about 1.5/2 once here. Give yourself 2hrs to walk and complete this cache, more if you do other caches and see sights along the way. In the summer you may want to rent a bike. Best done on bike or foot.
IF you have not found ALL (logged) the provincial caches before the final your log will be deleted!
