Geocache Description:

Cache hidden in Oslo's Nordmarka at Kobberhaugene, 516 meters above sea level.
Cache gjemt på en av Kobberhaugene i Oslo Nordmark, 516 meter over havet.


KOBBERHAUGENE frembyr noen av de flotteste panoramautsikter i Nordmarka. Denne cachen er plassert nord på den midterste av de tre haugene, med utsikt mot nord og nordøst. Den ligger i nærheten av Skogens Montanus Cuprium-ache, men altså med utsikt i motsatt retning. De to kan enkelt besøkes på samme tur, som også kan inkludere Kobberhaugen Top Floor lenger vest.
Cachen er en modifisert militær matbeholder, festet til en lubben unggran med kamuflasjeståltråd og en spesiell karabinkrok. Den inneholdt opprinnelig en lydbok, en CD-plate, en elgenøkkelring og andre godsaker.

Most people don't know this, but if they'd ever bothered to visit the gentle hills of Kobberhaugene, they would have some of the most spectacular views over Nordmarka. Their loss! This cache is placed on the pleasant north face of the center ridge. It is close to the Montanus Cuprium cache by Skogen St., but offers a very different view. They can be easily visited on the same trip, as can the nearby Kobberhaugen Top Floor.

The cache is a modified military food container, secured to a tree with camouflage steel wire and a special carabiner. Initial contents include an audio book, a cd record, a moose key chain, and a few other goodies.


This cache is dedicated to Bernhard Herre (1812-1849), the first urban dweller to explore these secretive forests and write about them with insight and beauty.
