Geocache Description:

[LAT] Konteiners ir plastmasas partikas karbina, kura ir viesu gramata, zimulis un zimulu asinamais. [ENG] Cache is a plastic box that contains logbook, pencil and pencil-sharpener.

[LAT] Puiškalns un Kalkupes ieleja - puscela no Dundagas uz Gipku atrodas viens no dižakajiem Ziemelkurzemes pilskalniem. Pilskalna platums ir 30x80 m, ta DR gala ir 4 m augsts valnis. 23 m augsto Puiškalnu no trijam pusem norobežo dzilas Kalkupes un Mazupes ielejas, zemesraga nogazes daudzviet izveidojušas stavas smilšakmens klintis. Kalkupes ieleja ar daudzveidigo gravu reljefu un smilšakmens kraujam ieklauta dabas lieguma.

Slepnis atrodas uz stavas pilskalna nogazes virs smilšakmens atseguma. Slepnis atrodas uz tada ka dabigi veidota “balkona”! Slikta GPS signala del koordinates, iespejams, nav visai precizas un ir loti aptuvenas (kluda ~8m). Kalna nogaze ir stava un var but ari slidena, tapec esiet piesardzigi! Slepnis paslepts neliela smilšakmens atseguma fragmenta, kura izveidojusies tada ka ala!

NEKAS NAV JAROK UN SUNAS NAV JAPLEŠ!

Esiet saudzigi pret dabu – neskrapejiet atsegumus un neaizmirstiet, ka ši vieta ir ieklauta dabas lieguma!


[ENG] Puiškalns and Kalkupes valley – there is one of the eminentest castle mounds of the North-Kurzeme on midways from Dundaga to Gipka. Width of the castle mound is 30x80 m. On the SW part of the castle mound there is a 4m high bank. The 23 m high Puiškalns is confined from three sides with deep valleys of Kalupe and Mazupe rivers. There are a lot of sandstone outcrops on the escarpments. Kalkupe river with varied valleys and sandstone outcrops has included in the restricted area of nature.

The cache is located on escarpment of the castle mound above the sandstone outcrop. The cache is located on natural “balcony”! The coordinates could be quite imprecise (accuracy ~ 8m) because of bad GPS signal. The escarpment could be quite slippery so be careful! The cache is hidden in small sandstone outcrop – there is a hole that reminds a small cave!

YOU DON’T HAVE TO DIG AND YOU DON’T NEED TO PULL THE MOSS!!!

Be gentle to nature – don’t scrape the sandstone and don’t forget that this is a protected area!
