IDENTIFICATION
Difficulty 1.5; Terrain 1.5; size ?; Creator: navypeople Date First Hidden: 08/11/2010 Date Last Found: 10/11/2010 Description This cache was judged by the attendees at the recent CARMH event to be the best cache "Hidden in Plain View" I hope you enjoy finding and logging this cache. In June 2010 a number of geo cachers from Medicine Hat gathered for a Meet and Greet closed to here. Bring your own pencil. FTF keepsake is a Navy League 100th Anniversary coin. The cache is a little fragile so please handle with care and replace the cache as found. And yes, although you can't find a log book, there is a method of logging your visit on the cache.

PLANNING
The weather is unseasonably warm and I am now eager to see if I can reach the level of 900 finds before the snow flies. After a few modest ventures in the downtown core of Medicine Hat I decided to try creating a list of potential finds that were on the western edge of the city. This time my list contained 13 geocache sites. At the end of the day I had looked for them all and was successful 12 times.
OUTCOME
11:45 am. This was my 7th search. This took me a few minutes as my GPS was bouncing around and I had difficulty identifying the location. Once I saw the picture the title made sense (until then I assumed it had something to do with the USA). Signing the log was straight forward. Since there was no logbook in sight, I took the back off the picture and sure enough, there was a sheet inside where one could sign. Here is my posting to this geocaching.com website:
I loved everything about this cache. Congratulations to all! SL. TFTC. Here are a few photos:
