Location

Calgary, Alberta Canada. On the field across the street from 625 Cougar Ridge Dr. SW

Participants

Guzzby

When I looked at eupeodes map this morning I saw it was possible to reach ground zero at two different graticules. I planned to leave at 10:00 am and drive to the one near Exshaw first. ThenI was going to drive back to the city and go out to Cougar Ridge where the second geohash is located . I was going to pick up a Squishee at the Mac's store which is 300 meters from the geohash. Then was going to look for 8 geocaches located in the area.

Expedition

I went out to the geohash located near Exshaw, Alberta this morning. Then I drove to the Mac's store located in the Cougar Ridge neighborhood in Calgary Alberta. I bought myself a squishy and then walked over to the geohash located 300 meters away. The geohash was located at the edge of a large park. I stood on ground zero and took a picture of each view. At this point my phone's battery died. so I was unable to go searching for the geocaches I had planned on finding.
