Hej, <BR><BR>
För ett tag sedan frågade jag dig om dina planer för denna cache och det är nu tid för arkivering. Om du vill reparera/återställa den någon gång i framtiden är du välkommen att ta kontakt med oss, lämpligen via http://swedenreviewers.se/kontakt.aspx. Om din cache då följer gällande riktlinjer så avarkiverar jag eller någon av mina kollegor den gärna åt dig. <BR><BR>
Hälsningar, <BR>

Geocache Description:

-"Where are we, Harry?"
-"One of the highest places in Sollentuna, if not the highest!, Thorvald"

This cache is hidden on the old mountain called "Tunberget". It's the one of the places where you can find the remains of an old fortress as well as a lot of water...

-"Why have all this water around, Harry?"
-"To make sure the people of Sollentuna are kept clean and without a bad smell, Thorvald"
-Should I take that as a complain, Harry? If I smell, I smell like the cinnamon buns we had in the café this morning! Or the waffles we had for breakfast even earlier than that. But that's not a smell one should complain about!
-Relax, Thorvald, it wasn't anything personal. Just a thought. Let's sit down here, and relax a bit.
-Don't tell me to calm down and relax, I'm as relaxed as I can be. But wait, isn't that the world famous restaurant, Edsbacka Krog? And their Bistro across the street? I get hungry even thinking about those places.
-With our budget, we might find something in the gas station down there we can afford. Let's just put the sticker where it's supposed to be and get going. Food, beauty and antiquities. That's what makes life worth living.
On that high note, we leave Thorvald and Harry for this time and let them walk down the hill to wherever they decide to continue their adventures.

The cache contains various stuff you all, including Harry and Thorvald, will need to stay clean as well as some other bits and pieces. When adding something to the cache, please prefer things stolen from hotel bathrooms around the globe to help fellow Geocachers stay clean.

Now, this is how you find the cache:

  • The coordinates above will take you to the entrance. It's within a kilometer from the Häggvik commuter train station.
  • Walking around the big water tank, you will find a pole with two labels attached, one says "Jordplåt" and a number, let's name it Y.Y
  • Still walking around, you can enjoy the beautiful view of Kista Science Tower, the lake Norrviken, the lake Edsviken (you can swim all the way to the king's castle in Stockholm here), Edsbacka krog (a restaurant with stars in the guide Michelin), S:t Erik's church, the Lonely Mountain (another cache site also called Väsjöbacken) and of course many, many geocaches (that you don't see, but they're still around).
  • On the entrance to the largest building on the site, there's a sign referring to a law. The sign refers to the law by using two numbers, XXXX:ZZZ. Remember ZZZ
  • Now find a good spot to sit down, take a sip of delicious tea from your thermos and start calculating as follows:
· The cache is hidden at N 59 26.(676+zzz)
E 17 56. (804 + (10 * Y.Y))


 

The grounds around the site is filled with litter. Please bring a trash bag with you and take some of the beer cans, spray paint cans and other stuff that is spread around this beautiful site. The view that is, not the building. I have always imagined re-decorating the building to a large strawberry cake...

Welcome to the top of Sollentuna!

Congratulations to Fridaugusta for the FTF!
