Geocache Description:

Juozapine Hill (292.7m ASL) was long thought to be the highest surface point in Lithuania.

Until 2004 when geographers measured the height of the neighbouring hill and found it was over a meter above Juozapine. The hill was named Aukstojas in 2005. Juozapine is now only a third highest peak in Lithuania with Zybartonys being the second. The peak of Aukstojas is 293.84 meters above sea level, thats roughly 964ft. Good place to calibrate your altimeter at a benchmark. See, Lithuania is pretty flat. Close to the Byelarus border in the nice surroundings of Medininkai highlands the place is worth to visit.

The cache is a bit camouflaged plastic box with a screw on top initially containing a logbook with a pencil, FTF wooden nickel, ly2kw wooden geonickel and the Red Handed Gold GC.

Happy hunt!
