Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Island's first Letterbox Hybrid cache, the Spud Island Post (see also (GC2J57A) Ice Boat Post).

For details on letterboxing click here.

Please make sure you do not take items from the tupperware letterbox as trade items -- they are meant to stay in the cache!

The cache is an ammo can. In a separate container inside the cache there is a rubber stamp, ink pad and logbook. If you have your own personalized stamp, use it when signing the letterbox logbook. Then use the cache's unique stamp in your own letterboxing logbook.

Background on the Stamp:

The color red was chosen for the stamp's ink pad because PEI is known for its red soil and numerous "red dirt roads". The potato ("Spud" Island Post) was chosen to acknowledge the vital role the potato plays in the Island's economy. It is and has been the number one export for PEI. Although the Island is Canada's smallest province, it provides ~ 30% of the country's potatoes. Overall, potatoes rank 4th among the world's largest food crops.
