The River Taxi system in Winnipeg is still kinda small, but is a really neat adventure - if you have never taken it, this is a cheap and easy way to see the city from the river. This Cache is at the last dock on the western end of the line (hence the name). The cache is a small black lock-and-lock container. This is in a farily public place, stealth is required. April 11 2008: A new and improved cache container with a brand new log book is now in place. The cache is bigger with room for smaller trading items and TBs. Please make sure you hide it well - the larger container means easer for muggles to spot! |

[Now THIS was an interesting cache location. Y'know, when I got there, I had one of those 'preeeeeetty sure it's gotta be hidden somewhere around there' type moments. After about 20 seconds of not spotting anything, I checked out a nearby stump... found nothing, then went back to my 'pretty sure' feeling. Upon closer inspection, the cache was located.
Being alone... I contemplated for a minute how best to do this. All I've got to say is...] thank god for having somewhat longer arms. Had to hold myself up with one arm and grab the cache with the other. [So yeah, all in all, it turned out successful. REALLY good hiding spot in my opinion, but I can definitely see that] someone smaller would have a hell of a time getting this one.
And for the record... due to the recent cold and snow, I was almost beginning to kinda get the feeling of "eh, I COULD go geocaching... or I could do something else to kill time". However, I decided to go out tonight, and was very glad that I did. This cache officially shattered that feeling of 'blah', and got me hooked on geocaching all over again. MUST FIND MORE!!!
Hmm... I wonder if I can get a Pocket Query to spit up all geocaches listed as winter friendly...
Took: Nothing (although I was really tempted to trade something for the cool skeleton hand... but ended up passing)
