Geocache Description:

Perinteinen kätkö Haapamäellä näkötornilla.
Traditional cache at Haapamäki observation tower.

Haapamäen laki Kokkomäki on perinteinen kokoontumispaikka.
Ensimmäinen torni rakennettin jo vuonna 1936. 60-luvulla rakennettiin uusi torni ja sen lahottua kolmas vuonna 1985. Torni kunnostettiin kesällä 2009. Torni on noin 20 m korkea. Tornin ylätasanne on noin 100 m läheisten järvien pintaa korkeampi. Tornista voi nähdä 60 kilometrin päähän. Puijon torni näkyy kirkkaalla ilmalla.

Kokkomäki, the peak of Haapamäki, is a traditional meeting place.
The first tower was built already in 1936. A new tower was built in the 60s and after it had rotten a third one was put up in 1985. It was repaired in the summer 2009. The hight of the tower is about 20 m. The upper deck is about 100 meters higher than the surface of the nearby lakes. The view from the tower is 60 kilometers in radius. You can see the tower of Puijo when the weather is clear.
