Geocache Description:


I started working out in this area of Alberta in the spring of 2009, which coincided with the beginning of my geocaching career. I passed by this area numerous times on my way to work, and then started stopping here to stretch my legs. When I ventured within, I started seeing real wildlife! There were deer, foxes, grouse, snowy owls, hawks and eagles. Perfect for my first cache hides, I thought!
This is one of 3 caches I'm placing within the Buck For Wildlife conservation area. I actually hid these in late autumn of 2009 after receiving permission from the Alberta Conservation Association to do so. Then I went on a trip and returned a few times to improve the coordinates, but never actually registered them until now.
These coordinates are the first ones taken so they may not be very accurate, but I didn't want to delay any longer... especially now that there are 2 other caches nearby!
This is the most difficult of the three. It's well camoflaged and tucked away in the woods. Please take care to replace it the way you find it.
I suggest parking at the turnoff just south of the watershed, which is indicated by the guardrails on the road. You mustn't drive past the "no vehicles" signage, but park as deep into the area as you dare to drive and hike the rest of the way to the cache.
