Geocache Description:

Eqpahak (formerly Savage Island) was the traditional meeting place for the area First Nation groups and is still used at times in this way. It is the northern most point where there is noticable tidal activity.

Be sure to tie your boat as water levels do flucuate unexpectedly


Eqpahak Island is famous for it's fiddleheads in early spring. I'll be placing a series of caches on the island in hopes that more people will go canoeing or kayaking to find them. Walking on the island is made more difficult by the huge growth of fiddlehead ferns in the summer. All the caches must be placed high up to avoid the spring floods.

I placed this cache on the other side of the island - you guessed it in another huge clump of maple trees.  It is named after another good fiddleheading buddy of ours.  Near the shore, it is an easy dock and grab.  Please replace and cover. Bring your own pencil.
