Geocache Description:

Cache is a small lock and lock. Logbook, pencil, stash note and
some traders. Long low slope descent to a river, last 100 meters drops fast

One of the unique things about Havelock is the limestone found in the ground. Limestone being soft slowly erodes as water moves by the deposits. This can leave caverns and crevasses over time as the limestone is slowly carried away by water. Sometimes the water returns above ground when the ground level changes quickly. This is the case here.

Park at one of 2 spots and walk or bike the railbed to an old road that takes you to the cache site near a river.

Parking spot #1 ( Hicks settlement road) N46 00.719 W65 17.676
Parking spot #2 ( Back street in Havelock) N45 59.999 W65 18.822

Road to cache N46 00.423 W65 18.459
