HAVAMAL
The Book of Wisdom

This sacred book contained words of wisdom which served as spiritual provisions for the Vikings on their long journeys over the rough sea to discover new lands.

Early shall he rise who has designs
On anothers land or life
His prey escapes the prone wolf
The sleeper is seldom victorious


Fjalar and Galar, brothers, desperately searched to find a hiding place for a segment of the Havamal. Their dwarf legs carried them swiftly along the Kolopore trail, over wooden planks where, at the end, they found a ledge of moss covered rocks which offered many nooks and crannies. To find this ancient tome of Odin’s philosophy, you must search approximately 10 meters off trail in a rocky outcrop. The brothers used superior camouflage so your sight will need to be keen. If the mood strikes you, add to the log book your own personal philosophy that has served you well. Include this and become one with Odin.
