Geocache Description:

A Quick Walk Through Sande


This is a quick and easy multi-cache based on a quick walk through Sande. The waypoints where information is to be found are easily located and are not in any dangerous areas. Likewise, the final cache location is not in a dangerous area, so don't fool yourself into looking where you don't have to.

This cache involves no advanced math nor are there any trick questions, so park the car, answer the questions and log yourself a cache!

Stage 1: Old Sande Station


Old Sande Station

This building is the original Sande trainstation and was opened in 1881. It's now a local watering hole and popular gathering place. On one wall of the building there is a big sign that reads "Sande Station", but what is interesting is that it also tells how many "meters over sea level" (m.o.h) the station is. There are 4 digits: 16.0x. The last digit = A

Stage 2: Anonymous Grave



Anonymous Grave
This quiet area hosts a grave stone dedicated to those who wish an anonymous grave site. It is, in my opinion, a very dignified gesture and the area around this marker is a peaceful place for reflection. On the marker itself is a small plaque with some information regarding this stone. There are also a few "stars" on the plaque. The number of stars = B

Stage 3: War Memorial



War Memorial
Right next to Sande Kommunelokalet is a somber war memorial dedicated to a number of people from Sande who perished during World War 2. Each year on May 17th, their sacrifice is honored with a small ceremony before the larger May 17th parades and celebrations begin. Number of people who died = C

Stage 4: Millstone



Millstone
In the large area just outside of Sande Rådhuset is a little area with an old millstone set up on pedestal. You can take a seat and collect your breath here if you need it after the long walk from downtown . Note: there is a haunted house very nearby...be careful! About 20 meters to the East of this spot are some small trees that were given as gifts to Sande Kommunet for various reasons. One nice looking tree, a "blodbøk", was also given as a gift. The year the "blodbøk" was given as a gift = D


So now you have all the information you need to solve the final location...good luck and I hope you had a nice walk
Just a little simple math here...and you're almost done:

E = D - 1797
F = A + 4
G = B + 2
H = C -3

Final location:
N 59° 35.E
E 010° 12.FGH


The container is a small plastic box with logbook and room for small TB's and tradeables.
