Geocache Description:

This cache is located in one of Halifax's most well-used, popular parks for humans and dogs.

The cache is located a short walk from the lower parking lot in Point Pleasant Park.

Stick to Fort Road until you reach the top!

" Fort Ogilvie was built to guard against an enemy ship passing through the stream of the harbour and into the Narrows. The battery was first built in the mid-1790s by the order of General Ogilvie, then commander of the Halifax garrison."

Great views of the harbour can seen from the fort again, as damage from Hurricane Juan, can be seen all over. BE VERY CAREFUL around the fortifications, as they can be very slippery. This site has been used as the stage of some "Shakespeare by the Sea" plays, as well!

BE AWARE of muggles, as this spot can be very busy at times!

THE CACHE IS NOT DOWN OVER THE SLOPE and is on the WEST side of the grass path that goes around the top of the slope!

The cache is a regular sized container which contains the regular swag, a logbook and pencils.
