Geocache Description:


These falls, tho "man-made" thanks to the Melford Power Dam, are spectacular.  High and powerful, they merge with the Melford brook at this location.  

You do not have to go down the bank to access the final cache location.  It is at the top of bank near a rock outcrop; between a dead spruce and a live one.  Cache is large and winter friendly.  Coordinates may not be perfect due to the area, so pay attention to the information provided.  

To find the final cache, refer to the sign on the building at the posted coordinates.  Use A =1 B =2 etc.  Follow the trail behind the building to the falls.  If you choose to go down to the water's edge please be careful.  Remember - the decision to search for any geocache (or to participate in any outdoor activity), and the responsibility for your own safety lies with you!" 

Geocache can be found at:  N 45 31.ABC W 061 18.DEF
