GCY12Q Red Salento (Traditional Cache) in Puglia, Italy created by Caterpirla

This cache has been archived.

IronRinn: I've decided to archive this cache after the building in which it was hidden was almost crushed down by someone. There are no other safe places around to protect the cache, so I turned it into a more interesting EarthCache (GC1FH34). Well, thanks to all that have logged this cache and... go on with the new EarthCache!!! [:D]

Geocache Description:

[ITA] Nei pressi di una cava di bauxite, vicino Otranto. La zona è facile da raggiungere.

[ENG] Near a bauxite mine, around Otranto in Salento, southern Apulia. The zone is easy to reach.

[ITA] Un suggestivo panorama vi attende in questa vecchia cava di bauxite, oramai diventata una sorta di lago artificiale. Il rosso acceso della terra ricca di ossidi di ferro e alluminio (la bauxite appunto) vi catapulterà in un'atmosfera surreale... Godetevela in silenzio. Il micro-cache è un contenitore per pellicole fotografiche, facile da trovare. Contiene il logbook e un nodulo di bauxite, magari non portatelo via, raccoglietene uno dei tanti che troverete per terra un pò ovunque.

[ENG] An evocative panorama is waiting for you in this old bauxite's mine, now becomed a kind of artificial lake. The bright red of soil rich in iron and aluminium oxides (the bauxite indeed) will throw you in a surrealistic atmosphere... Enjoy it in silence. The micro-cache is a film can, quite easy to find. It contains the logbook and a bauxite nodule, that is better not to take it away. Pick up one of the many that you can find everywhere on the ground.
