Many thanks to candlelightforge for the container. It is a "Saskatchewan Wood Tick" container. They are deployed in the geo-art series "Saskatchewan's Wood Tick Trail" southwest of Saskatoon; see for reference the cache page of GC5CM47. The cache is a micro, with no room for anything but the logbook. Be sure to bring a writing stick. It should remain findable early in the winter, but may become buried by plow activity later in the season.
