Geocache Description:

Now it's a preform container instead of the small black keyholder with logsheet.

CONGRATS TO elime1976 for the FTF!!!

The St. Joseph wind farm covers an area of 125 square kilometres of privately owned agricultural land in the two municipalities. The 2.3-megawatt turbines are set on towers that are 80 metres high. When fully operational, the wind farm will contribute to a regional reduction of more than 350,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases. There are 60 windmills in total.

The project is the largest of two wind farms in Manitoba. Manitoba’s first wind farm became operational in 2006 and is located near St. Leon, just southwest of Carman. That project produces 100 megawatts of electricity every year, enough to supply 35,000 homes.
