Churchill is a northern seaport on Hudson Bay with a population of about 1,100. It is also the Polar Bear Capital of the World. Although sightings of polar bears are not common in the summer, our group of over 20 geocachers had an armed bear guard when traveling outside of the townsite.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing Canada Post waymark, you will need to post a unique picture of the Canada Post sign. Including your gps device in the picture is not neccesary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
