Welcome to the Snail Trails, GEO-ART in the area of Sabile and Abava valley! Why snail? Because Sabile has vineyard that is full of winesnails, also known as escargots. On top of that, winesnail is depicted in the coat of arms of Abava parish. And snail just looks good on the map! 🐌
Take your time, no rush, and enjoy geocaching!
Mountains and seaside - wonderful. Hiking in mountains combined with geocaching and with view over the sea - the best of the best! I would like to challenge you to beat Mont Blanc, but that would be too much, at least in Europe.
To meet the "lower Mont Blanc" challenge, you must have found at least 2 geocaches at the altitude of half of Mont Blanc's altitude - at least 2400m above sea level.
Alternatively, you may have found 1 geocache at 4800m altitude or higher.
The cache itself IS at the posted coordinates. To log your find, use the checker to prove that you qualify for the challenge. You are welcome to sign the logbook earlier, post a 'write note' log now and register as 'found it' any time later when challenge is completed.
P.S. You will find bonus values on a few logbooks on the Snail trails - save them for bonus caches!
