Geocache Description:

Visit the Kumpula campus area.

Chemicum is the place the chemists come from. The VERIFIN, which relates closely to the international Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), is also situated in here. Chemicum was built back in 1995 near the A.I. Virtanen square. A.I. Virtanen was the famous finnish nobelist who invented the AIV fodder.

In the film canister there's only the log sheet and no pencil. It might be wise to take your own one along just in case you'd found the cache. When rehiding the canister, take care that the magnet actually holds it still don't leave the geocache too visible and/or exposed to the rain.
