Patch McPatch Traditional Cache

This particular cache is located very near the foundation of the old Fraser Farmhouse, on the Fraser Farm Trail. This is a lesser travelled, but beautiful trail along the north east side of McNabs Island. This cache is part of a series highlighting landmarks on the island. To get passage to the island, call the McNabs Island Ferry 902.465.4563.

Congrats to Salty_ca, MG69 & Flashjam for FTF.

The Fraser Farm trail runs between Indian Point and the Timmons Cove Trail. Approach the trail from the Teahouse. The Teahouse is bordered by the Timmons Cove Trail on the north side of the grounds, and the Fraser Farm trail leads directly off that to the north (or in this case, left).

The Fraser Farm is located near Indian Point on the drumlin closest to the marsh beside Ives Cove. The Frasers were originally tenant farmers, eventually buying some property from the McNabs family. They ran a dairy farm on the island. The Fraser farmhouse dates back to the 1790s and remains of the foundation can still be seen.

The cache is near the trail.
