PLANNING
This was a new experiment for me. I had downloaded a large number of caches in the Medicine Hat area to my GPS unit using a pocket query. I then headed out and as I approached a cache icon on my GPS I would enter the GC code into my iPhone to obtain a description and the coordinates. I was curious to see how well this would work.
OUTCOME
This was my 6th search. I left Lethbridge at 7:10 am. This turned out to be my first DNF for the day. Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
I was clearly in the area, but was unable to spot the container. Maybe next time. I forgot to take any photos of the dense shrubbery.
I am now 5/6 for today.
