Geocache Description:

This cache is placed to celebrate Syttende mai (see below) with the help of my friend Mostly Moose, who provided much of the swag in the cache.
It is a easy to find cache just a short way off the trail and a little more than a mile from the parking lot.

Norwegian Constitution Day is the National Day of Norway and is an official national holiday observed on May 17 each year. Among Norwegians, the day is referred to simply as syttende mai or syttande mai (both meaning May Seventeenth), Nasjonaldagen (The National Day) or Grunnlovsdagen (The Constitution Day), although the latter is less frequent.

The Constitution of Norway was signed at Eidsvoll on May 17 in the year 1814. The constitution declared Norway to be an independent nation.
