Geocaching kom til Aalborg. B&U-afd. placerede en af de første cache i Aalborg.
Det første koordinat fører dig til et lille museum, hvor du finder de informationer, der er nødvendige for at fuldende koordinatet til selve cachens placering. a = Årstallet hvor Aalborg Vandværk blev etableret (se indgangsportalen nær vejen). b = Årstallet hvor den borglignende museumsbygning blev opført. c = Antallet af elefanter ved hovedindgangen. d = Antallet af flagstænger på museumsbygningen. e = (b – a) + 10 x = e / 7 y = 4 + c + d z = 9 – (c + d) w = y + d Udsigtbænk / waypoint: N 57° 01.x0y’ E 009° 5z.0w0’ (WSG84) Nyd udsigten mens du beregner koordinaterne til den ENDELIGE CACHE PLACERING: N 57° 01.x0y’ + N 00° 00.026’ E 009° 5z.0w0’ + E 000° 00.047’ (WSG84)
OBS. Bliv på den rigtige side af hegnet..
I cachen vil du finde: En lille blyant Logbog (et stykke papir) Til den første finder af cachen vil der være en ekstra mikrocache indeholdende et First Finder Certificate.

a = The year where Aalborg Water Work was established (Look at the front portal near the road). b = The year where the castle (museum) was build. c = The number off elephants at the main entrance. d = The number off flag poles at the castle (museum). e = (b – a) + 10 x = e / 7 y = 4 + c + d z = 9 – (c + d) w = y + d View / waypoint: N 57° 01.x0y’ E 009° 5z.0w0’ (WSG84) Enjoy the view while you calculate the CACHE LOCATION: N 57° 01.x0y’ + N 00° 00.026’ E 009° 5z.0w0’ + E 000° 00.047’ (WSG84)

Found second time we were up on this nice little hill in Aalborg.
Kreativ måde at gemme skatten.....pænt svær at finde, og det hjalp heller ikke at GPS'en havde en præcision på 10-15 meter

Fed måde at gemme cachen på - det er virkelig gennemført.

FINALLY!!! It was about time.
When I got there, I saw some others looking for it, so I sat down at the previous point and watched the view, re ordered my next visists, and took some photos. When they left, we said hi to each other and they said they didn't find it. First bad sign. Then I started looking for it. It doesn't show up... Walk up and down, ¡nothing! Another bad sign And what in this Earth made me think that I, who had already failed twice, could find it where the same day others couldn't... Third bad sign. And then it started raining. OK I stop counting. About to give up, again, I make another run of the area... what's that... could it... It could! and it was!! Great hiding place. So far, this is the second or third hiding work I find that is worth a commendation. WELL DONE!!
It was a great find. It was a pitty I didn't bring anything for trading... there are nice things to exchange.
Thanks for a nice trip.
I have to say, though, that if I had the numbers right the first time, with the searching I spent in there, I would have found it for sure. No doubt about it. Just to have some peace of mind

Easily missed. I corrected my numbers, I re-calculated and entered the final point in the GPS. Today, with istvanzk accompanying --who had already found it--, I went for a second time to try to find it. This time with plenty of daylight: it was still 21:30. Final coordinates brought me to the middle of the field... no chance of applying the hint there. So I gave up quickly: that's why I say it was easily missed... also because it is the second time.
Anyway, got home, read it slowly... and of course, I found what I was set out to find: the spot with the nice view... I just didn't calculate the final hidding point. Now it is calculated and into the GPS... Next time I'm in the neiborhood, I'll pick it up.
This one will deserve a cold beer, when I find it

A nice spot in the big city... I left the calculating to my Dell Axim en it lead me to a spot where I found a little cache for a big view!
My third Danish cache and a real nice one too...
