Geocache Description:


Credit River - Shipwreck Series

SV Whiteway
 August 20, 1934



There are many shipwrecks around the world. Some very famous and others not so. Each however has it’s own story to tell. As you travel along the Credit River doing this series of caches, we have highlighted a number of these shipwrecks. During low water levels on these parts of the Credit River, you need to be careful in a canoe or kayak so as you don’t wind up in your own shipwreck. Besides the many large rocks along the way, there are also some other obstacles such as dams which should be avoided. All of the geocaches in this series have been placed, by riding inflatable boats and tubes or on foot by walking in the water along the Credit River. Whichever way you choose to search for these caches, use caution and common sense.
