PLANNING
Today was devoted to geocaching. I set up an early morning route for 11 caches in north Lethbridge. I found 10 and was unable to look for the 11th because of muggles. I came home and worked out an afternoon route for 10 caches in south Lethbridge. This time I found 9 caches and was unable to look for the 10th because of muggles. I came home and then set out again in the early evening, this time looking for the two I missed earlier as well as 6 new caches in south Lethbridge. I found one of the earlier muggled caches and 5 new caches and missed one more due to muggles. My total number of finds for today was 25 out of 25 (muggles preventing a search don't count). This is almost twice as many as my previous record for a single day. I doubt I will try to beat this but one never knows ...
OUTCOME
This was my 13th search of the day, and the 3rd on my afternoon route. I parked near the park but had a difficult time deciding if the cache was in the bushes or in the rocks. My GPS indicated the bushes but when I couldn't find it there I decided to enlarge the search area to include an area of large rocks. No luck there so I returned to the bushes and finally spotted it.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
My search took some time but perseverence paid off. Nicely hid Hannah. SL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:
