PLANNING
The Crowsnest Pass is one of my favorites geocaching areas. I set up a plan to search for 10 caches near Highway 3, one of which was a puzzle cache that I solved a few weeks ago.
OUTCOME
11:00 am. This was my 5th search of the morning. The combination of the Garmin with about 1/4 of the display missing plus the use of the iPhone (thank goodness there was a strong signal) allowed me to continue searching for the caches that I had planned.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
It will be nice to add another BC cache to my totals. TNLNSL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:
