PLANNING
The sky was clear when I woke up and I set up a plan to search for 8 geocaches in southern Alberta. The overall plan was to form a loop beginning with highway 5 to Waterton and then back roads to Pincher Creek and then highway 3 back to Lethbridge, passing through Fort Macleod.
OUTCOME
This was the 5th search of the day. I had tried to find this cache when it was first published but the owner had made a mistake with the coordinates. They have since been corrected.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
The new coordinates were more to my liking. SL. TFTC. Here are a few photos.
