Location

Participants
Plan
Planning to visit the hash at the first midnight.
Expedition
The hashpoint situated 1.49 km from home near the top of the highest hill in the city of Rovaniemi, at the hill "Ounasvaara". On the way to the hash there is The Santa Sport Center. This hash was almost "drive-in hash", I had to walk only about 60 meters.
There is a geocache GC1F3C9 near the hash, only 67 meters to the west from the hash and clearly seen from the hash, at least at daytime... I have logged it about two years ago 2008-09-03, but now I could not dig it out from the snow and ice to get the Hash Collision Achievement. Unfortunately there is no achievement for previous logged geocaches near the hashes?? It should be!
Yesterday I have learned how to get screenshots from Colorado 300. Fine! No more Techology Loser Feelings attempting to photograph in darkness and coldness. The Colorado's right "soft button" saved me!.
- By car total 5 km
- Walking total about 100 m
- Physical efforts needed (1-5): 1

So, I will take the car on the left...
