Getting Lost Real Bad
A Legacy Cache sponsored by kellybente
Kelly is the inspiration behind the GPS Adventures Canada Maze
that was on display at the Best of the Bad Mega Event. Kelly
wanted a cache that would get people lost or something out of the
way. He was also hoping the cachers would learn something during
the journey. We chose this spot because it was out of the way, but
also we wanted to teach people something, which is: If you follow
the instructions regarding the parking co-ords it really is a lot
easier. But it still is a challenge.
This cache is part of the Legacy Trail produced by the Canadian
Badlands Geocaching Association for the Best of the Bad Mega
Event.
The Legacy Trail
The Legacy Trail is a collection of geocaches that circles
itsway over 100 miles on country roads traversing some of the
mostscenic 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.
The Canadian Badlands
The Canadian Badlands in Alberta are home to the world's most
extensive dinosaur bone beds, badlands and hoodoos, and a
world-class museum that shelters a 75 million-year-old legacy. The
region is rich in culturally and and a complex and diverse modern
society that is still deeply rooted in the spirit of the
frontier.
