A picture from the zoo as it looks today

[SWE] Fridhems djurpark grundades 1955 av Lennart Pettersson. Djurparken låg inte långt ifrån Sturkö kyrka och bara ett stenkast från Sturkö camping. Den lades ner hösten 2001. Exempel på djur som kunde beskådas här var apor, afrikanska getter, chinchillor, duvor, dvärgzebror, fasaner, hamstrar, hjortar, höns, lamadjur, simfåglar, sköldpaddor, vietnamesiska hängbuksvin och åsnor.
Cachen består av en 0,3l plastlåda som förutom loggbok och penna innehöll en tärning, en pennvässare, en virkad kyckling och en nyckelring från Kristinehamn när den lades ut.

Ni behöver naturligtvis inte flytta några stenar i stenmuren för att kunna hitta gömman.

Letade ett bra tag men lyckades inte hitta cachen. Hade tyvärr inte tagit med spoilerbilden, kanske hade gått bättre med den. Hursomhellst så var det väldigt kul att spana in en övergiven djurpark! Tack för att du visade oss hit!

På vår morgoncaching innan receptionen på campingen öppnat så att vi kunde checka ut. Hittades ganska snabbt men lämnade ett minne i form av en blå tumnagel... TFTC

Nope, no luck here, even though we were crawling around in our effort to find it.
If someone had seen us, they might have though the park hasn't closed after all.

Här vände vi på varenda sten och letade i minst 30 min.... koordinaterna var rätt men ingen cash... dock hittade vi tändaren .. men cigaretterna var borta... undrar om den finns kvar...
