Geocache Description:

N: Cachen er plassert ved Norder-Tvärån, ved foten av Lillsnasen. Sti et stykke innover, men ikke hele veien. Likevel relativt lettgått. Fint utsyn mot Ø og mot V.

E: The cache (E name: Where the River Flows) is placed near the river Norder-Tvärån, by the foot of Lillsnasen mountain. There's a path into the valley but not all the way. Not too tough hiking, though. Nice views to the E and to the W.

N: Cachen er en litt stor "liten" - en forhåpentlig vanntett plastboks. Inneholder ved etablering: et lekedyr (bjørnunge), blå elg-nøkkelring, en kleberstenkube (S: täljsten), en Puerto-Ricansk quarter-dollar, og 50 svenske øre. Og loggbok, i ziploc-bag. Ta deg tid til en rast og en kopp kaffe ved cachen, og nyt fjellet, elvesuset, og den fine utsikten i begge retninger. Det er sti innover dalen et godt stykke (se fjellkart), men siste biten går utenfor sti, i variert fjellterreng. Godt fottøy anbefales - det kan være vått og steinete, men ingen krevende tur. Omtrent 4 km hver vei. Man kan krysse elva og gå nedover på N-siden for variasjonens skyld (litt mer "humpete" og fuktig).

E: The cache is a slightly big "small" - a hopefully waterproof plastic box. Contents at establishment: a toy baby bear, a blue moose key-ring, a soapstone cube, a Puerto Rican quarterdollar, and 50 Swedish øre. Plus of course a log, in a zip-loc bag. Allow yourself a rest and a cup of coffee to enjoy the mountains, the sound of the river, and the beautiful views in both directions at the site of the cache. There's an unmarked path most of the way into the valley, S of the river, but the last leg is without a path, in variable mountain terrain. Sturdy and waterproof footwear recommended - it's wet and stony here and there, but not a very demanding hike. About 8 km return trip. You may cross the river and return on the N side for variation - even if this in my experience was a little bit more "offroad" and wet (though worth it).
