Geocache Description:


This Cache is so easy to get to you could drive to within 50 metres of it if you have a 4X4 vehicle with good ground clearance and you don't mind scratching the paint.

We prefer to drive in from Macdowall and park at these coordinates (N 53° 06.616' W 106° 03.177') and hike in. On the way to the cache you will come to a path on your left at location (N 53° 07.645' W 106° 03.215'). We like to take it even though it looks like you are heading in the wrong direction. This path takes you through some interesting terrain; trees toppled over by a plow wind and a burned out area with new spruce trees so thick you feel your walking in a maze. If you take this path turn right when you get to the intersection at (N 53° 07.650' W 106° 03.963'). This will take you back to your original heading. Hope you enjoy the walk.
