Geocache Description:

A short little series highlighting some of the towns, big and small, of Saskatchewan. Most of the information below is taken from Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy a quick geography lesson of our lovely province.

Bring your own writing stick


The name Carrot River comes from the Plains Cree word for river of wild carrots, referring to the wild carrots growing along the Carrot River. Settlement was slow until the Canadian National Railway came in 1931 bringing farmers from the south.The building of roads and drainage ditches improved land conditions around Carrot River. It became a village in 1941 and incorporated as a town on April 1, 1948



Living Skies 2014 Geocaching Mega Event Freddy Cougar's note-I have adopted this geocache and will update/add to the information in the description in the near future.
