Skåne 2010 Geocaching Event - Bridge Challenge

So here's the deal: Get the coordinates, punch them into your GPS and then find the hidden treasure.....which we did. The question was how to get it....!


Getting advice and instructions on a guy who'd just tried to retrieve it (but who had dropped his keys in the river trying....) Hmmm, perhaps NOT the best person to take advice from but still.... ;-)))


Now we're egging on Christel though ;-)) She's a tough cookie! :-P


Go Christel, go Christel, go Christel.....gently gently though! :-P

And logged! ;-D

To get the right bounce in your buns you need to knead carefully and with panache...;-)

Söderåsen Spring hike!

When we did our little trek through the snow here in Winter we said we would come back and see how it all looks in the Spring. We were not disappointed today! It's just beautiful!


Icey cold but very clear!


Very grateful that the National Park owners have put down decking to walk on otherwise the place would get trashed with walkers


Here I am at the bottom of the talus slopes, formed during the last ice age by ice erosion.


Puh, once again at the top of Söderåsen (Kopparhatten) after the most wonderful ascent in gorgeous Spring sunshine.


Lunchtime!


The darling buds of May....errr, I mean, April :-)


Overlooking the lake on the way back down from Kopparhatten
