Lori drove today as our caching trio set out on a quest. We found a couple of caches in Whistler and then Pemberton. Only 2 more pages of our mapbook to finish our challenge of 30 pages. The next stop was in Joffre Provincial Park and a nice walk to the lake.
The final, south of Pemberton, one was a doozy. I was so glad that Lori was driving her SUV! They had studied maps and were sure they knew the way. My GPS was out of it's depth in the hills and didn't know the road we were on for some time. Road? It wasn't dirt or gravel, it was rocks! With some large potholes! Lori persevered and we finally found Mosquito Lake and the cache. We asked some Forestry Service people in a pickup that had to edge past us if there was an easier way. They said we couldn't get there from here. We tried to explain we already had been there and were on the way out.
Found a few more on the way back to North Van and then headed into the woods near the Dollarton Hwy. They sent me back when the trail got tricky and darkness was falling. I started walking up the wrong trail but realized it in time to get back to the car safely. Our bear bells kept any bruins away.
