Solsbury Yggdrasil
Enjoy a moderate and pleasant hike to an amazing tree on the lower slopes of Solsbury Hill Wasatch.
This Traditional cache replaces a former puzzle, Yggdrasil Wasatch, which you can view for the background history of this Yggdrasil tree.
The new cache will take you right to the tree itself, no puzzle-solving required.
Since my original research on this tree was completed, I can provide even more amazing information about it:
-
It is almost surely the only Yggdrasil tree in Utah.
-
It measures an incredible 9.2 of 10 on the CHCS (Cambridge Harmonic Convergence Scale).
-
The Yggdrasil tree is located at a crossroads of trails. As any fan of folklore or the supernatural can attest, Crossroads are locations of amazing power and interconnectedness between dimensions. Don't worry, though - the crossroads here are more aligned with harmonic convergence. You won't encounter any Hellhounds!
-
Even the GPS coordinates of the tree and cache have cosmic significance. Many geocachers, including myself, are in the habit of watching for unique and interesting number patterns in coordinates. Certainly, any location ending in 000 or 500 (the decimal minutes) is of special interest. As I learned from lesdubois, "The probability of two randomly-chosen three-digit numbers being one of 000 or 500 is one in 250,000." The coordinates of the Yggdrasil tree and cache are:
N 40 45.500 W 111 48.000
Enjoy the hike to this place of legends as well as the following gallery of images of the Yggdrasil Tree I have taken over the past decade (and feel free to post your own!).
