New Lairg Mine Multi Multi-Cache
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This is a 2 stage multi hidden at the site of the abandoned copper mine adits in New Lairg, Pictou County.
The first waypoint is located just off of Lairg road on the east side, a short distance up the bank. The final is closer to the top of the hill. Good luck!
There are three adits (tunnels) here all together, #2 remains completely open, #3 is mostly filled in at the entrance except for a small opening at the top which a small and nimble person may be able to enter. The most interesting story of this area however, is that of adit #1. Today, the entrance is completely sealed off aside from a small pipe for bat entry. The sealing was done by the government in 2002 after the body of a murdered man who had been missing since 1983 was discovered inside. You will likely come across the former site of the adit on the way to the final cache.
