If you are on Grand Manan you should definitely check out Anchorage Provincial Park. We camped there and were simply delighted with the sites, the people and the scenery. A true gem. And the trail to Red Point that starts at one end from the camping section of the park is also quite nice. Nearly 90% of the 1.5km trail is boardwalk and the parts not boardwalked are in some parts hedge-trimmed, yes I said hedge-trimmed. I believe the infamous Edward Scissorhands must live at this park :-> (go there and you'll see what I mean). If you start at the park end of the trail enter the trailhead near site 14. Follow the signs generally keeping to the right at any fork in the path. If you do this cache in early August you will eat a ton of raspberries along the way.

As you near the cache site there is a general wood clear cutting area. It's best to enter here as opposed to thicker brush earlier on the trail.

It is hidden in a rectangular tupperware container.
