With A Little Caching
Monday turned into a day with clear blue sunny skies! The drive into Manitobas Interlake Region was certainly pleasant. The job of the day was ground truthing for some forest blow down that happened in this area in the summer of 2010. High winds touched down in small swathes in a small area of forested, mostly private land.
This is a picture of some of the treed areas, the trees are very small and stunted in some areas. The land is rocky and not too fertile.

Some areas have White Spruce growing amoungst the poplar trees.

We did manage to grab one cache in Fisher Branch, by the little red caboose. We went north on the highway to grab one more, but this one eluded us. The terrain was a little rough, with a lot of rock and fallen trees, with huge tree roots sticking out of the ground. The snow was a little deep, we rooted around for maybe 20 minutes or so and still came up empty and so decided to call it a day as far as caching went. Our boots were full of snow and our hands were cold!! We didn't prepare with our warm clothing when we left the vehicle.
Have fun caching
