Geocache Description:

This is a canoe and/or Kayak event brought to you in part by the Haldimand Norfolk Area Geocachers.

So of course you will need a canoe or a kayak to participate. There are many ponds located in Waterford Ontario. It is one of Norfolk County's treasures. The water can be so calm and peaceful here that you won't realize that you are practically downtown.


We have firmed up details for extra canoes. There will be 6 canoes available for those that don't have one. Please include in your will attend that you require the use of a canoe.

Come join us for a day of enjoying these beautiful ponds. There is ample free parking and a free boat ramp at the posted coords for the event.

When: August 10th - Noon to 3pm

Please note the time change.

If you don't have a canoe or kayak, we are currently looking into having some on site. Please note in your will attend log that you require a canoe. More info will be coming soon. We will make an announcement when the details are firmed up.

A favourite with anglers, the three ponds at Waterford North Conservation Area are home to an array of fish species including largemouth bass, northern pike and a variety of panfish. Shadow Lake, Pickeral Lake, Willow Pond and Bass Lake are excellent examples of gravel pit rehabilitation, with deep rocky bottoms and pronounced shorelines. Enjoy Black Bridge, a 166-metre long, high level bridge with panoramic views of the Waterford Ponds.

Electric and up to 10 hp outboards are allowed here, but lets keep the peace today and enjoy the sounds of nature and each others voices.

There will be some water caches to find at this event.
