PLANNING
I had to take the Camry in to the High River dealer for factory recall maintenance. Since I was in the area I thought I would try to find a few caches in the townsite. I was not sure how much time I would have so I restricted myself to 5 sites. My original idea was to do a little geocache searching after the car is ready. This was the first time I have used the new Garmin nuvi since it was replaced earlier this week. I also took advantage of this trip to try the BT-335 data logger and see if I could obtain a map of my route from Lethbridge.
OUTCOME
This was my third search of the morning. Since the first two searches were short I had time to try for more before driving back to the car dealership. There was a parking lot behind the buildings and a path into a park, making walking easy. Although the cache was in plain view, it looked like just a plastic bag that had blown into the bushes. A very quick find.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
A nice out of the way spot. TNLNSL. TFTC.
Here are a few photos:

the green bag was a clever hide for the container

The Garmin performed perfectly. I will see if I can obtain a map of the trip from the BT-335 later. I also want to see if I can geotag these photos. Later.
I am 3/3 for today.
