Geocache Description:

(Français) Que des vignes !
(English) Vines everywhere !

(Français) Cette cache est située entre deux des 50 zones viticoles d'Alsace désignés "Grand Cru", le "Altenberg de Wolxheim" (le Riesling de ce dernier ayant été, selon certains, le vin préféré de Napoléon 1er) et le "Engelberg".

Laissez votre voiture à N48°34.856, E007°30.107 et monter à pied. Si le terrain vaut trois étoiles, ce n'est pas pour la montée, mais pour les derniers quelques mètres pour accéder à la cache.

L'ancien logbook (jaune) contient une indice numérique, qui servira (partiellement) à trouver la cache Mossig Mystery.

(English) The site is located between two of the 50 wine-growing areas which are entitled to put "Alsace Grand Cru" on their labels, the "Altenberg de Wolxheim" (whose marketing people would like you to believe that their Riesling was Napoleon's favourite wine) and the "Engelberg".

Park your car at N48°34.856, E007°30.107 and walk up. The rating for the terrain is not for the slightly steep walking slope, but for the last few metres to get to the cache.

Inside the cover of the original (yellow) log book is a numerical clue, which you will need (with others) to find the Mossig Mystery cache.
