Sometimes you don’t need to venture far from home to discover something new.

For us, thanks to our friend Richard Hansen hiding a Geocache, we got to experience a great natural area down along the bank of the Elbow River, not far outside the Calgary city limits. He did all the hard work, all we had to do was park at the end of a dead end road and then walk in along the old road allowance.

If you are a Premium (ie: paid) member of Geocaching.com, you can check out the details of his cache here: nicolo’s stroll to Elbow River (GC8Q4F9)

While down there, we found the remains of an old car as well as an old shelter of some sort. Come check it out with us.
