Description

This regular cache is hid at the Hall Creek Rest Area off of Highway 33 between Kelowna and Beaverdell. This rest stop boasts washrooms, & picnic tables, and is bordered by Hall Creek. There is a small trail along the creek accessed by the gate at the back corner. The cache is in a small rectangular tupperware-type container, and contains the logbook, geocache note, and pencil, as well as the usual trading items. Sorry, but I forgot to add a FTF prize. This camoflaged cache should be easy to find as its not covered and is in the open.

Hint Beside tallest of 3 (or were there 4?) stumps.

PLANNING

This was a travel day as we drive from Kelowna to Nelson, BC. I identified 8 caches along our route. Then, depending on the time, I may add a few more while we are in Nelson.

OUTCOME

9:15 am. This was my first search of the day. As the description indicates, this was an easy find. After pulling into the rest area I simply began walking in the general direction of the cache and looked for a large stump.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
