Vancouver Harbour - Memories Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Wizard of Ooze: As the cache owner has not indicated that they have visited the cache location to replace it if missing, perform needed maintenance, or verify that it is still there within the requested time period, I am regretfully archiving the cache to clear it from the active cache database and open the area to new caching opportunities.

Please don’t post a note on your archived listing as it won’t be forwarded to me and I won’t see it. If you need to contact me, please do so by emailing me through the contact link on my geocaching.com profile page or through my website www.wizardofooze.com

Thank you for your contributions to geocaching, and we hope to see you actively geocaching once again in the near future.

Geocache Description:

1986 was a memorable summer for Vancouver as the city hosted Expo 86, one of the most successful World Fairs in many a year. Not much remains of the original fair venues as it was planned to turn the area into one of the most exciting and vibrant urban residential areas in the world.

This location features a comfortable place to enjoy the water activities around the harbour. A nicely covered lookout protecting you from the rain or sun. Look for charter boats mixed with luxury yachts, tiny passenger ferries darting among dragon boats and kayaks. Watch out for the tug boats pulling barges past your view.

This particular cache location pays homage to the location of the fair of 1986 in another respect. Look for a special reference to "memories" of the past.

This is normally a heavily muggled area. However, if you are in the correct position the cache may be recovered and replaced without anyone detecting you. Please remember to bring your own pen or pencil.
