Ski jumping:
The ski jumping arena is one of the most spectacular arenas that was built for the games. Some call it
the “jewel” of them all. The opening and closing ceremonies was held here. And we think most people remembers the beautiful pictures broadcasted to the world from here. Lysgårdsbakkene is the preferred
training area for the Norwegian ski jumping team. Lysgårdsbakkene is also an all year arena with multiple activities summer and winter.

Stealth needed, the cache area can have many mugglers at times.
Please replace the cache exactly as it was placed originally.
