On July 18, 2019, Cabox Aspiring Geopark honoured renowned Newfoundland Geologist Harold “Hank” Williams (1934-2010) by installing a large interpretative panel depicting his life and work at the Saltbox Restaurant and Information Center in Benoit’s Cove. 

The 48″ x 64″ panel was installed on the rear deck overlooking the Humber Arm.

The panel includes historic photos of Williams and several of his important geology maps.  The text was taken from E.R. Ward Neale’s tribute to Williams at the 1994 Nuna Conference in his honour, in Grand Falls, NL.
