'Country' 46 for me, and since I like to host a cache event to meet locals and other travelling cachers while on an adventure... Well, this spot looks perfect for a memorable selfie with a Polar Bear ahead of a day out and about. Outdoor location; please dress for the weather.
Please join me at the statue between 08.30 and 09.00 on Thursday May 5th for Geocaching chat, TB/Geocoin swapping, hat wearing and perhaps a snack.
A long, long time ago I noted someone had held a cache event close by and the idea of visiting Svalbard was planted in my mind. Having got close to the equator in 2020, and to the wild north of mainland Norway in 2014 (N71° 11.111'), it's time for another caching adventure. N78° awaits..!
