Sun Gear By Kalle Reunanen
N 60°22.078' E 25°08.169' (WGS-84) Country: Finland Stashed on: 9/30/00 Location: About 4 km south of Kerava quite near Keinukallio Ski centre. Mailto: geokassi@innovatico.com
Presumably the first stash in Finland !
Thanks to SlashDot that I found this very interesting site / sport.
The stash is located under the root of a fallen tree in woods bit over 1 km south from Keinukallio ski centre. It should be quite easy (2/2) to find with picture clues and co-ordinates. There is path passing about 50 m from the stash. Stash is marked with blue paper ribbon attached in nearby small tree. See pictures for more clues.
Stash contains: * Letter in Finnish and English * Sunglasses * 1 key ring * 1 bag of xylitol chewing gum * 1 box of freshing mints * Logbook and pen
Position information should be very good. My Garmin III+ claims averaged position accuracy to be 3.2m ( see attached photo). I would be happy to hear from you if you find the stash.
Stash is now easy to access but when the snow comes, I would guess that it will be very difficult to access during January-March depending how much snow there will be on the top of the cliff I put the stash.
Happy Hunting.
