BCP786-Johnson Lake 1941. Brass cap above grd 10" and 30m from parking lot2022-09-15T20:00:00Found itDanOCan<p>BCP786 - Johnson Lake 1941</p>
<p>Being so far above ground level and close to the parking lot made a nice easy find on this one. [FOUND]</p>
2018-08-05T20:00:00Found itmikefromcanmore<p>BCP786 Johnson Lake 1941 - New parking area is finally complete and the whirling fish have been dealt with. Didn't have the coordinates so just stepped off a distance from the map and started looking. Finally found but seems like an odd place for a cap but suspect the area looked different when the cap was originally place almost 80 years ago. {FOUND}</p>

<p>The area around Johnson Lake re-opened on July 1 so Mrs BVPete and I went and [FOUND] the referenced cap today. The area had been closed for the prior 6 weeks for Whirling Disease studies and mitigation. There is now an interesting story board describing the disease as well as a station to clean anything that gets immersed in the lake. The very old cap was a very easy find as it is about above ground level not far from the west end of the parking lot. After we located the cap and acquired the data we went on a very pleasant hike around the lake using the outside trail loop. We went very early to avoid the Banff crowds and to enjoy the cool morning temperatures.</p>
<p>Thanks for selecting this interesting old survey monument, it was a beautiful day to go for a walk in Banff.</p>
