#1: Overview

(visited by Rico Melchert, Bodil Eriksson and Linus Arvidsson)

13-Jun-2004 -- Our goal is to successfully place a GeoCache at the vicinity of each of Sweden's Confluences that are on land.

Start of the project: 2004/JUN/08. This is our fifth degree confluence.

After having visited N58E15 we went up to Tranås for some food and then we were off again. This confluence is located less than 35m from the closest road, but the terrain and elevation of the area still makes for an interesting experience.

[For more information about Geocaching, go to www.geocaching.com]

Coordinator's Note: Visiting all the confluences in Sweden is a great goal, but I must quote from the the project FAQ: "We would like to strongly discourage the leaving of a permanent marker especially in wild areas"
