This cache can be found on Grand Manan Island, the largest of the Fundy Isles in the beautiful Bay of Fundy.
The cache is near the historic Swallowtail lighthouse, which you will pass on the hour and a half ferry trip you will need to make to get to the island. (The trip is free to get to the Grand Manan, but you pay to get back to Blacks Harbor on the mainland.) We recommend planning to spend at least 2 days on Grand Manan, more if you can. Getting on and off the island in the same day requires good planning and sometimes a bit of luck.
After you find the plaque, answer the following questions:
1. The plaque is in memory of whom?
2. What are the dates on the plaque?
Please note: Virtual finds are not allowed. You must actually visit the site in order to log a find!
Please exercise care, the rocks in this area can be slippery, especially when wet!
When driving to Swallowtail watch for the sign and turn right on Lighthouse Road at N44 45.952, W066 44.530. The sign may be hidden by bushes. If you miss the turn you will enter Hole-In-The-Wall Park and you may be charged admission.
