Cape Breton Highlands National Park 75th Anniversary Geocoin
In 2011, Cape Breton Highlands National Park celebrates its 75th anniversary. One of the popular activities in this park has been geocaching. This year geocachers who find all 5 ecocaches and complete the quiz will receive a special limited gold geocoin for their achievement.
Geocachers will have to hike 17 km on 5 hiking trails in the national park – Acadien, Benjies Lake, MacIntosh Brook, Jack Pine and Freshwater Lake. This can be done in one or two days. Be sure to stop into Cheticamp or Ingonish Parks Canada Visitor Information Centre to get your cacheport and get GPS co-ordinates.
