This series of caches will take you on a
journey starting at The Claypool Bridge in Middle Musquodoboit and
ending on the Moose River Road at the turnoff to Markland, the site
of the 19th century Icelandic settlement. They are a mixture of
micro's (some quite small) and small traditional caches. Some are
located on or near highway bridges.
WARNING!!!!
- Park
safely while visiting these caches as these roads
are used by large trucks that travel very fast.
- All the caches located on or near bridges
are easily accessible from standing on the bridges or on level
ground. You will not have to climb under or over bridges or descend
down steep banks. If you find yourself hanging upside down from a
girder then you are in the wrong area.
Most of the cache containers have been
camouflaged to keep muggles out but any geocachers worth their salt
will have no problem in spotting them.
Bring writing instruments as some of
the micro's are too small for a pencil!!!
We are planning to hide more caches in this
series in the near future.
The Claypool Bridge is named after a
prominent family that lived close by during the last century. At
that time it was a single lane bridge. One night about 20 or so
years ago, Overboard was on his way home from work at about 1 AM,
and had to take a long detour around this bridge. A herd of Jersey
cows had taken up residence on it, completely blocking it and
refused to move!
This is a very small micro container
and there is no pen or pencil. If you don’t have any
scribers but have a camera we will accept a picture of cacher with
cache in hand – email only – do not post a picture of the cache on
this page.
IMPORTANT: There is a small cap
that you remove in order to access the cache. Look closely at the
container for this cap. Do not attempt to remove the container from
its base.
Thanks
Happy Caching!
