The First Geocache in the Netherlands! Jan 2001

The cache is buried in sand dunes. 25km east of Utrecht in an area called "De Soester Duinen"


The original cache owner has quit the game *). The cache was maintained by Geoman/Hawkeyes in 2003-2006 and adopted by mbts in 2007.

*) however...


Note: this is an old cache, the coordinates are not very accurate. Follow the instructions!




First Dutch is buried ~20 cm under the surface. It's an ammo-box.
Walk to the two 'Islands' in the sand. Stand in the middle. Turn your face to the north/west. You now will see 1 tree on the right 'island' and 2 larger trees on the other. Now draw a straight line between the tree on the right 'island' and the southernmost tree on the left 'island'. The cache is buried where the line hits the edge of the right island.

Please bury the cache at a depth of 20 cm.

Happy hunting!




First Dutch ligt begraven op zo'n 20 cm diepte. Het is een munitiekist.
Loop naar de twee 'eilanden' in het zand. Ga in het midden tussen de eilanden staan, gericht naar het noord-westen. Nu zie je één boom op het eiland rechts van je, en twee op het linker. Trek nu een denkbeeldige lijn tussen de boom op het rechter en de meest zuidelijke boom op het linker eiland. De cache ligt begraven waar de lijn de rand van het rechter eiland snijdt.

Begraaf de cache s.v.p. weer op 20 cm diepte.

Succes!
