The cache is located on the Lion's Den trail (turn right heading
into Fogo, and keep your eyes out for the turn-off on Pickett's
Road.)
This a great trail, although the the cache is actually only
about a 40-minute return trip. Keep the left at the first fork
toward Locke's Cove and Eastern Tickle.
In 1851, Locks Cove, Eastern Tickle and Lions Den were settled
by fisherpersons from the surrounding areas of Notre Dame Bay. In
1945 residents of these communities resettled at Fogo and
neighbouring areas for the convenience of being near schools,
churches and, medical assistance.
The 4.5 kilometre trail boasts scenic views, whale watching,
bird watching, berry picking (ie: partridge berries, blueberries
and marshberries) and potential picnic and boil up areas. Also,
there is a fresh water supply nearby which is easily
accessible.
The cache is located near a raised pond overlooking the sea. You
will turn left and travel up to find the cache.
Of the 30 caches we have placed on the Kittiwake Coast, this one
has few rivals for sheer scenic beauty. There is an amazing cache
(not one of ours) at Brimstone Head nearby that we encourage you to
find as well.
The cache contains:
Pins
Magnets
Tatoos
Bookmarks
We have placed four caches in total on unforgettable Fogo
Island. Prior to visiting, we encourage you to check the ferry
schedule.
