Geocache Description:

Located on ATV trail #2 in Advocate off the Cape D'or Road.

Located on ATV trail #2 in Advocate off the Cape D'or Road. Follow #2 ATV Trial until Turn where Second Trail Breaks Off to Right. Cache is off to the Left of the Mine Shaft. You are looking for a small Peanut Butter Plastic Jar with a Log Book and a couple of small trading Items. This is the site Colonial Copper Mine established in 1897 and ran until 1905. The Shaft is still Existing and a Few Hundred feet deep. Pay Attention to where you are, BEWARE not to go to close Mouth of the Shaft or the Snow Fencing as it is not very Strong. Also Know that you are very Close to the 250 ft Cliff Edges. DO NOT hang on to the trees to see over the edges of the Cliffs. Trees fall all the Time, Yes even Large Trees due to Under Erosion of the Bank Edges. You can see these Cliff from the Other Side of Horseshoe Cove From the Cape D’or Road (N45 17.965 W64 46.169) Then you will see why you should not wonder too Close to the Edge. 250 Feet is a long way down. You can see more information at Cape D’or Light House just a few more km down the road where there is an Amazing View of the Bay of Fundy. Look For Cape D’or Cache at N45 17.527 W64 46.445
