Great collection of old maps
There are 4 waterfalls on the Cheticamp River.
I have photos of Barrier Fall, the taller of the 4.
one cave exists between Artimise Brook and Cheticamp Lake.

There were two plane crashes in Nova Scotia that did not make your list
Sometime before March 1945, probably 1944, an RCAF plane crashed near Stellarton .I recall my late father taking me to the site .I do remember that there was a military guard there , the plane was intact except there was some damage to the propellar blades and that the pilot survived .According to locals he ran out of fuel .He was based at either Summerside or Debert. There is a highway between Stellarton and Westville and the crash occured west of the railway line that goes to Pictou .
Also in the early fifties , a small plane out of the the Trenton airport , crashed beside the old no.4 hwy at the eastern end of Linacy . The accident killed Conrad Mc Namara and Tommy Roper both from New Glasgow .The were both pilots and it was not determined who was at the controls .

nice site!!! i am very happy there are other adventurers out there that share the same tastes in venues as I do. If it is possible, as an option, could there be a heading for old Acadian sites/foundations/etc…
I ask this because I myself have uncovered a couple areas/foundations. There is a foundation in Mosherville that I have dug around(carefully) and have unearthed bits of glass, pottery,nails and yes even burnt remains of the former dwelling. I know there is a small village in St. Croix that have many foundations.
Also if it is possible to add a link about Pirates in Nova Scotia. As in areas of they may have “put in”. Again I have visited many areas of these swashbucklers that may have been. For example Black Hole Harbour, the mysterious Haunted Falls and the caved in chimmney. Just a suggestion. Ethier way this is a great site and I look forward to displaying some of my own exploits. Cheers
