PLANNING
I created a set of 4 searches that I estimated would take about 2 hours. They were all within about 30 km of Lethbridge and formed a natural loop.
OUTCOME
This was my first search. My GPS unit still had the old (i.e. incorrect) coordinates so I returned to the same spot that I had a couple of weeks ago when I realized there had to be a problem with the coordinates. This time I used my iPhone to access the previous logs and I then keyed in the revised coordinates and was soon at the desired location.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
I was able to watch one of their planes go through its paces while looking for the cache. Impressive! TNLNSL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:
