PLANNING

I set up a set of 5 searches in the Lethbridge area that would enable me to clear off some of the new geocaches in this area. The first two were in North Lethbridge and the next 2 were in rural Alberta, south-west of the city. The fifth search was in the town of Magrath. I then added one more search to my list. This was also in Magrath and resulted in a DNF when I tried to find it earlier this summer. Since it is within walking distance of the fifth search I thought I might give it another try.

OUTCOME

10:20 am. I had a little difficulty with this at first as my GPS thought the shortest distance to the cache was through a high fence that separated the park from a major thoroughfare. I then drove to the entrance to the park and walked to the cache area. The container turned out to be a modified fishing lure, hung in the branches of a tree.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

Nice location and nice hide. SL. TFTC.
