Happy Hunting!
Welcome to the first Geocaching and letterboxing hybrid cache in Alberta! Hopefully you will take the time to appreciate what each hobby has to offer. We hope that the FIRST TO FIND will enjoy their treasure from Africa.
This cache was created in the honour of our dog Rocky, hence “ROCKY” ROAD… and that is has been! We adopted
Rocky from a rescue in Newfoundland in March 2004. He is a beagle-jack russell cross, and he can sometimes be quite a handful. Occasionally he will escape our yard (by various, sneaky methods!) and will be caught roaming the river valley of Cochrane. On a nice day you may be able to see hang gliders soaring over Cochrane from the cache location. Please take the time to enjoy the scenery as
both Rocky and we do.
Happy Hunting! Cochranegirl and Stringbean72
Letterboxing Clue: There is a mystical creature with the body of a lion and the head of an eagle with the addition of prominent ears. The female also has the wings of an eagle. It is generally represented with four legs, wings and a beak, with eagle-like talons in place of a lion's forelegs and equine ears jutting from its skull. What is its name?
Follow the “mystical creature Road” to the very end. You will know you are on the correct route if it (1)describes the creature above, (2) if you go past much fallen timber, and (3) if your trail is long and winding. At the end you
will see a “car corral” to park at, east of a large complex. Begin your hunt from the NE corner of the “corral” and head due north approximately 36 m. Look high and low to find the treasure stowed.
