Box #3 is missing.
These boxes are located at Cleveland Dam in North Vancouver. Take the Iron Workers Memorial bridge and continue on up the highway. Take the Capilano road exit heading north. Just past the fish hatchery turnoff on the left is the Cleveland Dam parking lot.
Once parked head over the dam. The view to your right is spectacular and the view to your left is dizzying. Once over the dam veer left, descending. Watch on your right for a fairly large fallen tree which, with two fingers points the way to what may have been a road at one time on the left. Aprox. 25 paces in you will find a cairne of rocks, a nice spot for a bird to hide.
Back to the trail heading down. Soon to come to a fork. A little detour here up to the right, Capilano Pacific trail. A short way on look for a small trail on the right near a little rock well. Head up the trail to a bridge. To the right of the bridge is a lump plagued tree, look up to see what I mean. Examine this lumpy fellow.
Back the way you came to where the detour began. Now choose to descend down the Trout Hatchery route. Quickly you will see Giant Fir steps. Use them and keep an eye out for Grandpa on your left, he is easy to miss. Not far past gramps turn right down the steps to a wide gravel path. Choose to take the high road right. While walking along watch for the first path left into the spooky moss forest. Almost immediately you will notice a large burnt giant on the right and a natural looking step ahead. From the top of the step pace 30. To your left box 3 awaits apon a shelf through a triangular opening.
Back to the trail continuing on to the 3 way fork. Choose the middle, head left and follow the log fence down. Stairs ahead. Stop on the top step and look up to your left. If you walk a bit up that way you will see something that looks a little out of place. Hmmm.
Back down, following the steps to the bottom. Go over the cool bridge and head left to a circular lot. Across the lot you will see a hut reminiscent of Myst. Near the hut are some stairs marked "Cleveland Dam". You must take these stairs. Sorry folks but what goes down must come up.
