During the summer, head over to Broadway at lunchtime and you'll
see sun-worshipping Winnipeggers lining the streets, business
jackets off, eyes to the sky and hotdogs in hand.
If you want to find this cache however, this would not be a good
time to try it. Extreme sneakiness may be needed to retrieve this
cache.
The cache contains a log book, tradeable items, and an MBeans
first to find certificate.

MBeans, when you saw those city workers working at the cache site, did you also see a biker relaxing there too? When I went after this one, I had gotten off my bike and kicked back while poking around at the cache. As I was sitting there (shortly after I had found the cache itself, but had closed everything up so that it looked normal anyway), several city workers came driving by and spraying water over all of the grass, which I assume was seeded or some such. I can't imagine them wanting to water the barren dirt in the middle there otherwise 
.
But I was essentially in the middle of visiting all of the sites for the Earthcache at the Forks, and decided to tackle any random caches that happened to be along the way. This one... was the first of them. Didn't take long to find the cache container itself. However, it fooled me pretty good at first. I located and promptly re-hid the cache location, before coming to the conclusion that wait... no, that IS the right place. A little poking and prodding and I was in. After poking around the tradeables here and there, I lobbed in a chainmail ball, waited for everyone was paying attention to the road instead of waiting for the lights, and popped everything back together. Mission accomplished 
.
But still... by FAR the awesomest cache container I've ever seen. I have a VAGUE idea as to how it could have been created, but all I can do is hypothesize. Very good work, and very will hidden. I can only fathom how much time it must have taken create that container .
Does the 'Hardest cache in Winnipeg' have a new contender perhaps ?
