The hunt takes roughly an 2 hours but that doesn't include
exploration of the surrounding area. It will require you to have a
good pair of hiking boots, as there are many slippery rocks to
traverse. There are many as I call it (sink holes) which means you
take a step and next thing you know you just found a hole. Also
please watch your footing (especially with children) as there are a
few dangerous holes in the ground especially around stage 2 once
you walk out of the cave. If you choose to go spelunking (caving),
be sure to bring a flashlight, rope, cell phone, and at least 3
friends with you (1 to stay with the injured and 2 to go find
help). This cache is not recommended for young children and is
listed as a 5/5 because depending on the time of year and weather
conditions this cache can be exceptionally tricky. Also to help
with the hunt, writing down the hints is a good idea.
The multi consists of four stages, the first three being trees
that are tagged with coordinates, and the final is a Rubbermaid
container. To reach the parking for this cache, coming from
Collingwood on County Rd. 124, turn right on County Rd. 91, and
then turn right on Osprey/Clearview Townline. Follow it to Eagle
Crescent, turn right onto Northway, and finally turn right onto
Osprey Heights.
From the trailhead (parking), follow the trail across the top of
the ridge to the first stage. Stay on the side trail until it exits
the crevices before searching for stage two. Take the time to
explore the area if you wish; there are some great crevices, and
caves to be seen.
PLEASE keep in mind that when walking through
grass there is always the dangers of poison ivy, bugs, glass,
snakes, birds, mud, water, small aliens, dragons, ninja monkeys,
biomechanical men, rabbits, cats, dear, bears, very small rocks,
fairy's, African swallows, and trolls. Oh and don't forget about
the dangerous ones ...... teenagers :-) Therefore, enter at own
risk!! Ha ha happy hunting all!!!
