Geocache Description:


Know the four H's: Hagar, Helga, Honi and Hamlet:

Hagar the Horrible (visit link) is married to Helga (visit link) who is a stay-at-home Valkyrie. They have a daughter, Honi (her Swedish name is Brynhilde) (visit link) who is an old maid at the age of 16. Their son, Hamlet, is a complete mystery to the family; he enjoys reading more than pillaging. Kvack, a duck, and Snert (visit link) , also belong to the family.

Hagar returns home after two years of pillaging and plundering at sea to find his household in shambles. His daughter, Honi, has become engaged to a non-barbaric singer (Lute), and his son, Hamlet, has begun reading books and poetry after being expelled from the Viking academy. Hagar directs his anger at his wife, Helga, accusing her of allowing "the ruin of the lack of civilization!"

Cottage Point is one of the smallest suburbs in the Sydney metropolitan area. It contains about 50 homes, located in the waterfront bushland of Ku-Ring Gai National Park. You can also find a marina with a kiosk, the KMYC yacht club, the very nice Cottage Point Restaurant and bases for the Rural Fire Brigade and the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard.

To get to the cache by car you will have to drive through the Kuringai National Park. The area where the cache is hidden however is not within the park. If you only go there, then you do not have to pay the park entry fee, but if you intend to go to other spots within the park, then you have to pay.

The cache is a micro, so there is no room for any swaps unless very small. However, when published, the cache contained the Thuringia Geocoin 4.
