Things to Remember
- Caches are in bear country. Be BearSmart.
- Please extinguish all campfires and ensure your off-highway vehicle (OHV) is clean of debris while you hunt for clues.
- Please help protect Alberta’s forests. When you are hiking and looking for clues, stay on designated trails.
- Many caches are accessible via dirt roads that may or may not be passable during specific conditions.
- Using an OHV is recommended, as is returning later when conditions are clear and dry.
- Some roads may be closed during certain times of the year.
