Geocache Description:

Cachen ligger ved en av de mange turveiene i området - parker ved
gården og gå innover i skogen der det er skiltet mot Hærstøl og
Krøgle.

The cache is placed near one of the many hiking roads in the area -
park at the farm and enter the woods where the sign says Hærstøl
and Krøgle.

For 10 000 år siden låg det en 2 kilometer tykk is over Heddan.
Gardens historie begynner da isen smeltet, formet dalen og la igjen
steinblokker og morenemasser på den 800-900 millioner år gamle
granitten. Helleren, som har gitt garden navn, har trolig tjent som
ly for jakt og fangstfolk helt tilbake til jernalderen. I
begynnelsen av vår tidsregning kom de første fastboende, men den
skriftlige historien begynner først i 1646.

10 000 years ago, a 2 km thick layer of ice covered the region.
History commends when the ice started to melt, forming the
mountains and valleys, leaving sand, gravel and boulders on the
800-900 year old granite. The cave, or Helleren, which has given
the farm its name, Heddan, has probably served as shelter for the
first hunters and gatherers entering the area in the iron age. The
first inhabitants appeared in the migration period 300-600 AD and
from 1646 history of the people at Heddan is recorded in writing.
