The Legacy Trail
The Legacy Trail is a collection of geocaches that circles its
way over 100 miles on country roads traversing some of the most
scenic and spectacular landscape in this part of the Canadian
Badlands. A large number of caches in a variety of types, sizes and
difficulty are placed on the Trail. Every town, village and
hamletin the Canadian Badlands has its own cache. Some caches were
named after local historic events and people, as well as
celebrities who grew up in this area. Some caches were sponsored by
geocachers who attended the Best of the Bad Mega Event. The Legacy
Trail was produced by the Canadian Badlands Geocaching Association
for the Best of the Bad Mega Event.
