Geocaching

Dwaine and I had worked on some challenging puzzles and after we solved them a trip to the Dogpound area of Alberta was in order.

Two geocaching buddies and I traversed some seldom-walked trails along the North Sask River

It was my first time hiking around the trails at in Glory Hills Natural Area. There were a few caches here, but in the end it was the trails that I remember.

I’d been on this trail a couple of times before but it’s been a long time since the last visit. It’s named Misasin by fellow geocachings, so I’m going with it. It was fun exploring new sections of it today.

This is a geocaching outing where I was SO glad to be with other cachers. The first hide was diabolically hard to find and it was Dwaine who spotted it. They weren’t all like that but some were oh so nicely crafty indeed.

I’ve always just loved hiking in the Chickakoo Lake Recreation Area. There’s is a great mix of tree species that line both the well-travelled main trails and the less-travelled “goat tracks”. This was a solo geocaching hike and I found all but one of the caches I looked for today.

I traveled down the winding road to Mandy Lake today to find two caches. I was with the cache owner when he hid them, so I’m returning to find them fair and square.

I had multiple goals today: to find a challenge cache near Dorward Lake and to capture as many time lapses as I could in the Dorward Lake area.

The main purpose of today’s hike was to swap ammo can geocaching containers for lock ’n lock containers. These caches were hidden quite a distance from parking in the Blackfoot / Cooking Lake Recreational Area.

I made walk over early spring, still somewhat snowy ground to a remote cache today
