Geocache Description:

UPDATE! Cache is once again active. Shoutout and lots of thanks to my good friend HEGENOR for replacing the container after driving 9000km to get there!!!



Congratulations to TeamGeoBearz with FTF!!!

Pretty straightforward traditional geocache hidden close to the ski track at 2615 MASL

While there are several ski lifts sprinkled around the hills of Mt Etna I suspect the conditions for skiing are pretty rare. That, however, is no good reasjon for not visiting the ski slopes and the surrounding calderas.

The geography and geology of Mt Edna is very well described in several other earthcaches around, see for instance the Etna Volcanos or Colorful Crateri Silvestri

The cache is a small plastic container, hiddan in a distinct but small pile of lava rock. Very easy to find, the main purpose of this cache is to provide a traditional cache near one of the higher calderas of Mount Etna. Winter access will depend on snow conditions.

Happy caching!
