This cache is overlooking a waterfall off the Camptown Road on the
Pockwock River.
Parking for the Camptown Road is N 44'45.385' W 063'51.365' The
road is an old road that eventually connects with the Old Annapolis
Road built by the British in the 1800's.according to the locals
there were a number of camps on the road hence the name. Part of
the road was 'upgraded' for logging. There are the remnants of
Wright's saw mill by Wright's Lake. They tell me many a fish has
been taken out of Wright's Lake. The cache is in an oasis
surrounded by clear cut logging and environmental abuse. Travel 1
km down the road to the bridge, follow up river about 50m to the
waterfall. The cache is a welding rod container in a large rock
overlooking waterfall.When placed contained,a light stick,emergency
candle,survival whistle & match container, magnifying glass,
N.s. Playing cards, hand warmer, combo lock,valantine pin. $2.00
