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 fourth search of the morning. I was making good time and soon spotted the container up a tree.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

No munchkins but there were a couple of city employees working nearby. Nice hide. TNLNSL. TFTC.


Here are a few photos:

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 4/4 for today. But time was now running short and I had to hurry to the car dealership.
