island heritage trust purchased the 24 acre scott's landing tract
in 2006, with the assistance of maine coast heritage trust.
fish, clams and a major coastal route brought many people to
this area. early native americans, early english-speaking settlers,
farmers, fishermen, clammers, storeowners and ferrymen have all
lived and/or worked here.
the "etchemins", as the early nativeamericans called themselves,
named this place "agemogen", which means "fishing place". it is
known now as "eggemoggin reach".
scott's landing, with its rich history, also boasts some
interesting geological features and incredible views of eggemoggin
reach and the deer isle-sedgwick bridge.
the cache container is a large ammo box.
