Geocache Description:


Cache is just off the TCH 305 near South Haven.



As quoted on Nova Scotia's Official Tourism Site - Cape Breton Island, offers a chance to truly explore Celtic culture and history. There is a saying common here: Ciad mile failte. It means “a hundred thousand welcomes” and is typical of the warm greeting the island’s visitors can expect. To truly experience the Celtic culture, you want to visit:
Gaelic College of Celtic Arts and Crafts - Students of all ages and ability travel here from around the world to study programs in traditional Scottish disciplines including Gaelic language and song, music, dance and crafts.
The Highland Village - a living history museum and cultural centre that celebrates the Gaelic experience in Nova Scotia.
Celtic Music Interpretive Centre - Sign up for a one-day step-dancing workshop or a week-long fiddling course.
Celtic Colours International Festival - take in one of the hundreds of events, activities, concerts, workshops, tours and dances in this Island-wide event.
The Feis an Eilein on Christmas Island and take in the traditional milling frolic held the third Thursday in August as it has been for more than 70 years.

Cache is a camoed extra large pb jar with log and pencil, you must sign log for credit. At the time of placement, the cache also contained a geocaching pin, net tote bag, emergency candles, cork coasters, utility scissors, mini Sharpie and Cdn coin holder. There is also a $2 Tim's certificate for the FTF.

To celebrate the Celtic Caching Challenge 2008 we are releasing a new geocoin "DNF".
