To get to a remote cache today, I walked down familiar trails but then covered ground that I’d only once been near before 10 years ago - and that was in the winter months.

I undertook a grand loop hike in the Ministik today, what I call the Five Meadows Hike. It was a gloriously beautiful day to do it too.

Three of us did a two part hike today, first north of Township Rd 510 and then south to Deadfall Alley

In the past I’d walked on stub trails northeast of Mandy Lake and today I wanted to see if they really were actual trails - spoiler alert - there were.

There are some out of the way trails in the Ministik that start but eventually just peter out into nothing. This is one of them.

I made the trek down the trails of a corner of the Ministik I seldom visit today.

After parking at the Chickakoo Equestrian Lot, we proceeded to scour the eastern side of Chickakoo for caches

Four of us hiked south from the UofA Access Road gate all the way down Deadfall Alley today.

It’s March and the ice between islands on Ministik Lake can still be walked on. Or can it? Yikes! There’s standing water on a lot of it!

I hiked down the Mandy Lake road, past the old cabin and shelter to hide a geocache today.
