Northside Park in Tilbury is a (mostly)
green oasis tucked between industry and a superhighway.
Beyond the recent addition of an optimistically named
memorial “forest”, the park’s main feature is its historic
dashwheel. (The dashwheel, incidentally, is almost never
mentioned without the “historic” tag. Based on what I’ve been
able to learn, exactly why it’s historic doesn’t seem as
important as continually emphasizing that it is.) Originally
designed to transfer hydrokinetic energy, there it sits, now
completely landlocked and utterly useless.
Stage #1: A camoflaged micro at
the coordinates given above. In it, you'll find information needed
to find a subsequent stage. (NOTE: I've included a
few "grab-and-go" copies of the info, but you may want to take some
paper with you in case they're all gone and you need to transcribe
the instructions.)
Stage #2: A virtual
cache.
Stage #3: Another camoflaged
micro, this time at coordinates N42° 16.ABC' W082°
26.DEF'. It is not necessary to remove this stage from
its hiding spot to extract the information you need.
Stage #4: The ammo box cache
itself.
FIRST TO
FIND: Team Namthcof and Hard

Finally, a couple of requests and
reminders:
- Private property is private. Don't
go there.
- Superhighways are dangerous (and
illegal) places to park and/or walk. Don't go there,
either.
- Please respect the effort that
went into creating this cache and trade fairly.
- Please replace all cache stages
just as you found them.
- Have fun, and remember, it's a
historic dashwheel!
