Little Saskatchewan - An Island Spirit Legacy Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

The Cookie Makers: Well super disappointing, but someone has stolen the very unique container that was the cache. It was made in Edmonton and brought as a gift to the event, no way I could replace it with something equally as creative so I guess it’s time to archive this.

Little Saskatchewan - An Island Spirit Legacy.



From the top of Mt. Prevost you can really see the lay of the land from either peak. One peak has a cairn for those who have fallen in WWI and WWII, the other peak is popular with hang gliders. The road to Mt. Prevost is open to the public every day, but it is a backroad that sees a lot of atv and motorbike use and mountain bikers. Drive slow, keep your headlights on and only your navigator's eyes on the gps.



All the Island Spirit Legacy Caches are within a 2 steps of the trail, unless otherwise noted. There is no need to bushwack or trample the vegetation.





Little Saskatchewan


Little Saskatchewan. On the steep upper slopes of Mount Prevost, the beautiful views of the Cowichan Valley were in stark contrast to the tough life of the families that lived at Little Saskatchewan in the 1930s. Primarily a small logging town, it served the nearby mill operated by H.R. MacMillain logging company, but was all but deserted by 1939. Named after the origin of many of its inhabitants, Little Saskatchewan left little legacy - all that remains are a few piles of rotting lumber and rusting tin cans.
