Geocache Description:


 

Marikovadammen er en av de mange isdammene i Nesodden og Frogn. Isproduksjon og -trafikk var en blomstrende butikk her fra slutten av 1800-tallet til begynnelsen av 1900. Isen ble brukt for kjøling av matvarer i spesielle isskap. Forbrukerne i Europa kunne ca. 1920 ta i bruk ny teknologi for kjøling. Dammene ligger fortsatt som historiske minnesmerker for denne produksjonen sammen med murene fra ishusene og fortøyningspåler på svabergene.

Cachen befinner seg i nærheten av dammen, i den sjeldne edeltreskogen som fyller dalsøkket og omgir Marikovadammen og bekken videre ned mot sjøen. 
 

Ikke glem å skrive ned Hallangen-bonusen ...

The Marikova Pond is one of many ice ponds in Nesodden and Frogn. Ice production and transport were an important business here from the end of the 19th until the beginning of 20th century. The ice was used for cooling food in many parts in Europe until new technologies in about 1920 made it unnecessary to transport ice from Norway. The ponds are still there as historical landmarks for these productions together with the ruins of the ice houses and moorings for the ships.

You can find the cache in the proximity of the pond, where rare hardwood trees are growing, following the creek down to the sea.
