Geocache Description:


ADAIR'S NATURE TRAIL (ANT)




As you drive through the Fundy wilderness region with its hundreds of logging roads, you are often left with the impression that it contains only clearcut areas and softwood plantations.

However a bit of research and exploration will show you a lot more. Geocachers have now placed geocaches and earthcaches in many places in the wilderness. Geocaching will lead you along old roads to abandonned cemeteries that tell you that people used to live in this wilderness. Geocaching will also lead you to narrow river gorges and brooks with walls a few hundreds feet high and dozens of waterfalls. It will bring you to the Fundy Footpath which hugs the Bay of Fundy coast for 50 kms from Fundy National Park to Big Salmon River on the new Fundy Trail It will bring you to the Catamount Trail and to beautiful Wallace Falls. It will bring you to pristine rocky beaches along the coast with their majestic cliffs. All around you in this region, you will find serenity and peace.

On the edge of this beautiful area, you will find Adair's Wilderness Lodge. A wonderful 3km footpath wanders through the woods from Adair's Wilderness Lodge to Walton Lake. You will be surprised to discover that most of this footpath wanders along a beautiful hardwood ridge.

You begin the trail by going around the pond to the first cache. The trail then leads to a footbridge, follows a wide trail through softwoods, comes to a beautiful little double waterfall and then gently climbs to hardwood ridges. As you walk along the ridges with the soft earth beneath your feet, you will notice that the terrain slopes away from you on both sides to little valleys and gulleys. Eventually you will see through the trees on your right that the terrain slopes down to a lake. Later you will descend slowly to the lake and finish your trek at the shore of Walton Lake.

Most of the trail has been blazed Appalachian Trail style with the 2 inch wide, 6 inch long white blazes painted on trees and rocks in strategic locations. A double blaze indicates that the trail will be making a turn. One of the caches that we placed is near a double blaze. There are a few places where the trail is marked with red trail tape.

We hope you enjoy this fantastic trail.
