PLANNING

We planned to visit a cemetery in the Barrhead area as part of some genealogical research. I made a route that would also include visits to 3 provincial parks where I identified a geocache that we could search for. This is part of my goal to eventually find caches in 60 provincial parks. I downloaded the cache coordinates for the 3 sites and was ready to go. After returning to the campground I walked to this cache which was located at the entrance to the RV campground.

OUTCOME

This was an easy find.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

A nice cache that I found while camped at the nearby RV park. TNLNSL. TFTC.
