While out in British Columbia and Albert for 17 days
on vacation touring around with the family in a motor home, we
spent most of the time driving through and exploring mountains.
With the exception of the last few days, it wasn’t hard to
spot a mountain were ever we were. It didn’t take long before
I realized how truly awesome these the mountains were in their size
and beauty. Part way through our vacation I realized that I have to
create a series of geocaches to share with others some of the
photographs I took of these wonderful giants and the views they
create.
We spent a few days in Revelstoke where you can see
the peak of Mt Begbie from just about anywhere you are in
Revelstoke. This peak was my first realization of how big these
mountains are. When I looked closely where the snow meets the
trees, I realized how high the peak stood when I realized how small
the trees looked compared to the peak. The peak rises to a height
of 8,967 feet above sea level, with a prominence 2,900 feet above
the town of Revelstoke.
You are looking for a small bison tube type
container. The cache only contains a log book, so be sure to bring
along a pen or pencil with you.
