Geocache Description:


This is an all seasons cache located in Pretty River Valley.

Placed with permission!  

The area was originally settled by the Petun Aboriginal people many years ago. Approximately 150 years ago hardy Scots immigrated to this valley and made it their home. Many of the early Scottish farms were bought by the government and are now part of the Pretty River Valley Provincial Park. The Inn sits on 125 acres of what was once 650 acres parcel that was acquired in 1860’s by a Mr. Bell.  

This location sits on the Niagara Escarpment. The Niagara Escarpment stretches from western New York to the shores of Lake Michigan, reaching from Tobermory to Manitoulin Island as it crosses through Ontario. It is formed from the erosion of the dolostone, limestone, and sandstone bedrock to form sharp cliffs on one side and a gentle slope down the other. This region of the Niagara escarpment has received UNESCO biosphere designation.
