Geocache Description:


 
 
 
 
 
Cache site. The Antennahead observed from Henriks dam below Knutehytta on a January evening. Pictures by MOSTLY MOOSE
  Thanks to a large installation, the cache site is a landmark that can be seen and recognised from most of eastern Norway. It dominates the Kongsberg and Knutefjell region and overlooks a popular skiing and hiking area, but there's no prepared track to the Antennahead.
There are many ways to go. From the top of the ski-lifts you are looking at a rather steep eight kilometer hike. Or drive the surprisingly long way up to Knutehytta and start from there.
It is suggested to approach from the north. You could follow the exciting "Rundløypa" to the trail intersection at N 59.40.775 E 009.31.190.

Warning: Ice may fall from above. A large sign warns you against this. It is no joke. Do not go close to the tower.

The cache is a quality plastic container, secured with velcro. It is in a relatively dry and wind-proof location, but don't forget to re-secure with the velcro after logging.
