PLANNING
There are 13 caches in west Lethbridge. After finding two caches that were within walking distance I returned home and made a list of another 6 caches that would form a circle route. Then off I went again, this time in the truck.
OUTCOME
This was my 6th cache of the day. I parked the truck in the Cottonwood Park parking area and walked the short distance to the first cache area. I quickly found the tiny ammo can which contained the coordinates for the second stage. Appreciating the information that the second cache was not at the bottom of the coulee I continued on and soon found the regular size ammo can.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
Not all ammo cans are created equal. TN, Left a geocoin, SL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:
