DEVIL'S GAP CACHE
We placed this cache on a hike we did through Devil's Gap towards
Lake Minnewanka. The trail itself isn't all that difficult. Getting
there might be. We took the #940 north towards the North Ghost
camping area. Highway #940 is just west of Cochrane on #1A.
Watch for Richard's Road on your left (pavement ends just after).
Take the next left after Richard's Road. About 16km down the road
you come to a hill that warns continuing on is not recommended. We
saw a lot of cars at the bottom, so when we were there, it was
fine. We took our van all the way to the trail head - better for a
truck or 4X4 though.
If you are walking, from the bottom of the hill head SW. The road
used across the gravel should be obvious. From the trailhead, it's
about 5.5 km to the cache. The coordinates for the parking at the
trailhead are N51 16.950 W115 10.273. The trail starts a little to
the left.
It was difficult to rate this cache. Once you get to the trail,
it's an easy hike. The most dificulty is getting there first.
For those interested in a longer hike, you can actually hike all
the way to Lake Minnewanka (29K I think). We hope to get that one
done soon.
The container is a small ammo can. Please NO TRADE ITEMS ARE
ALLOWED. The cache contains some emergency supplies for wayward
hikers ONLY.
GOOD LUCK
