Monkey island
much speculation sorrounds the naming of this island, before the road to riverton reached here, a slip way was built on the island so that the boats (being the only means of delivering supplies) could be unloaded. A monkey winch was used to haul the boats ashore and thus it is presumed that this gave its name to monkey island. On the shore a village developed to serve the needs of the influx of early settlers. In the early 1870s This area brimmed with houses, three stores and a hotel.
the island is only accessible at low tide.
the cache is a fake rock containing a log book.
