Geocache Description:

Crowfoot Mountain

  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 managed to see Crowfoot Mountain from two different angles. It wasn’t until I got home and looked up the mountain that I discovered it was the same mountain. Crowfoot Mountain plays host to the Crowfoot Glacier and overlooks Bow Lake. Within minutes after taking the pictures of Bow Lake, the wind cam up and removed all reflections of Crowfoot Mountain from the lake’s surface. The peak rises to a height of 10,023 feet above sea level, with a prominence 1,164 feet the surrounding area.

  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.
