Snail Pace at the Races! -- A Kid's Micro

N 50° 16.501 W 119° 16.761

Difficulty 1.5; Terrain 1; size regular; Creator: Groundhog & Shadow Date First Hidden: 5/09/2010 Date Last Found: 9/22/2010
Vernon BC

Description
Almost a drive-up cache, this micro is hid at the Kin Race Track, and holds a logbook with the geocache note. You will need to BYOP. Kin Race Track is noted for the horse races held here each summer. This is not a race, so although this could be a quick grab, if you're slow you might find it faster and won't lose it! (the cache -- not a race!) There can be many muggles across the street at the school, or driving by etc., BUT one can search for the cache without being seen very well.

Hint You should hedge your bet on this race by betting on #1.

PLANNING

This was our first full day in Vernon. I had the afternoon to myself to do some geocaching so made a list of 14 geocaches and headed out to see what would happen.

OUTCOME

1:30 PM This was my 6th search of the day. I loved the container and how it fit into the cache title and location.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
