This is yet another "street" cache in Skarbøvika.
Located close to the street, but were it is placed it is quite safe for moving cars.
Not recommended for kids since this is the major road leading to/from the island of Hessa.
At "Steinvågneset", north east on Hessøya is the street of Tonnings gate situated.
Several persons with the familyname of Tonning have been involved in the development of the tradecenter of Aalesund before it was a city, and also after it became a city.
Due to this it is decided that this street shall only bear the familyname, and not the christian name of any member of the family.
To find the final position of the cache you have to find out who was the first major in Aalesund. He was a major several years before the tradecenter named Aalesund became a city.
When was he born? = A
When did he die? = B
Peder Olsen Tonning bought the farm "Steinvågnes" on auction in what year? = C
The same Tonning became head of the postoffice, situated on the same farm as in question "C", but in what year? = D
Ole Tonning inherit the farm on Steinvågneset, hid did it not so well. He had to sell the farm (auction) and moved in to the city and started to do business.
In what year was the farm sold on auction? = E
The farm is still on Steinvågneset to day, but now it is not run as a farm anymore. What street number (adress) has the farm? = F
Use the letters in the following formulae, calculate only with the minutes:
Latitude = 62° 28.226' + (A-C+F)
Longitude = 006° 08.890' - (B+D-E)
A visit to Aalesund Museum is a good start!
