Geocache Description:

This three-part multicache is located at a little known, but historically important site on the western outskirts of the city of Uppsala. In the vicinity you will find references to King Gustav Wasa, father of the Swedish State, a very old bridge, an interesting runestone and a 2000 year old graveyard.
You will find the reason for the name of this cache at the site of the second clue.


This multi-cache should not take more than twenty minutes to complete. Total walking distance about half a kilometre.

The cache consists of a large, black, plastic cylinder with a red screw-top and initially it contains the following:

  • Geocaching letter
  • Log-book and pencil
  • Set of four spring-clamps
  • Alarm clock
  • Eraser
  • Carabiner
  • Toy clicker in the form of a crocodile
  • British 2 pence coin

At the coordinates given above, you will find two dates. Subtract the earlier date from the later and this will give you the number xxx.

The second clue is at N 59° 50,(153 plus xxx), E 17° 33,(xxx minus 40)

At this place, you will find a three digit number, aaa

The cache is at N 59° 50,(aaa minus 400), E 17° 33,(aaa minus 809)

Note: This cache can even be found quite easily when there is snow on the ground.
