Geocache Description:

This cache is located along the Black Marsh Nature Trail in North Cape, PEI. The trail is well-kept in this area, so the terrain is generally good.

This series of caches is located on the Black Marsh Nature Trail in North Cape, PEI. The trail is 5.5 kilometeres round trip, and takes you through a wind-swept forest and a natural bog. In addition to its ecological significance, the area around the Black Marsh has long been at the centre of local folklore. For example, a local legend suggests that Captain Kidd placed buried treasure in the area, and that the ghosts of his sailors still protect the riches.

This cache is a micro and is located near an Irish Moss harvesting access road. Irish Moss is a seaweed that grows on rock beds and is blown to shore in heavy winds. To this day, horses are still used in the harvesting process.
