&lt;p&gt;Found it about 7 feet north of the low concrete wall and 16 feet east of the flagpole structure. The hole was obvious, and the cap was 2 inches below ground level. Had to dig away some dirt. Watch out for ants. Thanks for this cap.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'd always wanted to go down the West Road and decided that even if I didn't make any finds tonight was the night for that drive. Fortunately there turned out to be 2 caps and a cache for me to find so I got a few bonus smileys. It was a quick find in the rain and I managed to snap the pictures quickly and with minimal water damage to my phone. It's always a treat to get these old caps with the low numbers. Thanks for another smiley and hope all is well with you down south.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I made my way over to this one after a find attempt at a very, very busy Hinton Recreational Centre. It was too busy there to attempt a find, but when I got close to this gz, well, it was completely quiet, now I'd found where everyone [b]wasn't[/b]!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was able to find the cap quickly and took some pics after cleaning off ever so little covering leaf litter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the cap!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I quick find, but it is starting to get dark, so I had to move on quickly to find more caps!&lt;/p&gt;
