Alberta Lakes Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Everhollow: I stopped by today on a maintenance check and found the cache was damp and the area has filled in with plants and dumped cut branches. The cache has been active since February 2007 and this is a good time to archive the listing. Thank you to those who solved the puzzle and visited the location.

Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.


Alberta is blessed with many lakes ranging from clear water lakes with sandy beaches, to warm green shallow lakes in the prairies and parklands, to brown water lakes throughout the Boreal forest, to pristine, cold, mountain lakes that reflect spectacular scenery. We have added to this variety by creating new lakes in the southern half of the province called reservoirs. Our lakes that were created by the retreat of the glaciers, are less than 12,000 years old.

To solve this puzzle, find the name of each lake found at the following coordinates:

A. N 54° 33.333 W 110° 06.666

B. N 51° 24.777 W 116° 13.333

C. N 52° 52.000 W 112° 45.444

D. N 53° 06.600 W 113° 54.400 – N 51° 00.000 W 113° 19.000

E. N 55° 37.000 W 116° 44.000 – N 54° 38.000 W 110°17.555

F. N 53° 00.000 W 114°46.444

N 50 55.ABC W 114 07.DEF

The 16 oz Lock n Lock cache is located very close to houses but you should be able to search without being seen. You can park close by, or for those who prefer, walk over from Bebo Grove (N 50° 55.760 W 114°06.902). There is a walking / biking path next to the cache site. There is no need to damage the trees since there is an opening into the cache site.
