PLANNING
I set up a route that would involve 12 geocaches along Highway 22 north of Pincher Creek. I also made note of 4 caches in Claresholm in the event that I had time left after the first 12 had been searched. The intent was the simple one of trying to clear the southern end of the valley between the Porcupine Hills on the east and the Livingstone Range on the west of all "unfound" caches. I left home about 7:30 am.
OUTCOME
12:50 PM This was my 6th search of the day. It is the first search as I begin my reverse loop of my original planned sequence.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
The container had been displaced from its hiding place but was still in good shape. I returned it to the obvious spot. My guess is that a wandering cow put its nose into the hideout. TNLNSL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:

I am now 6/6 for today.
