Geocache Description:

The cache is about a 35 minute drive from Kingston, and about a 10 to 15 minute walk from the car, depending which way you take to reach the dam. This site can be accessed by water in the summer from the Rideau Canal System.

DANGER: Watch for the potential of LARGE falling rocks at rock face and there are a few rotting trees with dead branches that you should keep an eye on as you get close to the cache.

Established by Cache and Carry (Donna and Terry) and our good friends Joan and Guy. We started the day off by looking over another site, came to the conclusion that it was a too well traveled area in the summer. Joan came up with the idea to try this location - glad she did.

If you look at the pictures first, especially the V tree one, it may give away the challenge. Points of interest are the deer run through the small ravine between the rocks, and unfortunately the deer hunter’s tree seat near by.
