Geocache Description:

Another NB waterfall popular with ATVers. Old growth trees and a moss covered forest floor.

The cache/falls is located in Quaco Road, NB. This is one way to get there:

Head east towards the Saint John airport. Drive past the airport and continue for about 2 kms on Hwy. 111. Turn left onto Hwy. 820 (Barnesville Rd.). Stay on this road until you see the sign for the Upper Quaco Road. Follow the Upper Quaco Road until it becomes a gravel road. Park and follow the ATV trail on the left side of the road. It will take you to the falls and cache.

Cache is a small plastic container wrapped with camo duck tape. Photos of the falls & area that we’ve taken can be seen by visiting the gallery. Please add some of your own. We hope you enjoy your visit to the Quaco Falls area. Good luck in finding the cache.

GPS WAAS accuracy was 3.2m when the cache was stashed.

ORIGINAL CONTENTS OF THE CACHE:

• Logbook (with pen & pencil)
• Laminated FTF certificate
• Geocoin
• Pedometer
• Calculator LCD watch
• Disposable camera
• Invisible ink pen with UV light
• Coca Cola playing cards
• Bag of marbles
• Touchable bubbles
• Dry erase marker
• Flashing Cdn. flag pin

Fishing for trout is great below the falls. While setting up the cache we saw large (2-3 lb) trout spawning in the brook adjacent to the cache site.

NBHunter has a very nice cache (Ratcliffe Falls) hidden above the falls. If you're here ... check it out!
