The Welcome to the Boonies series was placed as a cooperative effort of 8 geocachers in South Western Nova Scotia: Dryfly and Catch, flyfishNS, Treasurehumper, H and Y Frosty, Zipalong and Tadpole. The caches were placed as part of the 2007 winter placement challenge, February 2, 2007. The Welcome to the Boonies route offers a variety of caches, and is designed for your enjoyment while driving through this remote part of our Province. The series takes you along Route 203 and along several side roads, and skirts the Tobeatic Wilderness area, with the permission of the Department of Natural Resources, who kindly assisted us in suggesting cache placement choices. The birding is excellent along theroute, as are the opportunities for hiking, biking, canoeing or kayaking. Route 203 still has good fishing and hunting opportunities along its length, so please be aware that you need to wear hunter orange in the fall (September to December), and be careful with matches and flame sources in the summer. This route is about an hour drive straight through from Carleton to Shelburne, and Geocachers will obviously take
much longer. A word of caution - Route 203 does not have food or fuel stops once you go past Kemptville heading East or past Shelburne going West. As well, your cell phone will not work in some sections,particularly from East Kemptville to Middle Ohio, so it is best to be prepared.
Welcome to the Boonies is a great way to explore the edges of the accessible wilderness of South Western Nova Scotia - Happy Geocaching!
This section of Bear Brook runs between second and third Bear Lake. A quiet and peaceful stream winds and flows through this wetland, and we hope you enjoy the serenity of the surroundings. This cache is hidden in such a way, you shouldn’t have to walk very far from your vehicle. This Park and Grab, is in a fairly large cache. Due to its proximity to the river, you may want to bring along a pen/pencil. Small trinkets fill the container along with a FTF certificate.
Please close cache cover tight
