Geocache Description:

[LAT] Slepnis atrodas Viskuža salas meža vidu! Pats slepnis ir 0,86 litru lock-lock kastite, kas satur logbooku, zimuli, asinamo un dzešgumiju!
[ENG] Cache is located in middle of Viskuža island forest! Cache is 0,86 liter lock-lock box and it contains logbook, pencil, eraser and rubber!

[LAT] Slepnis atrodas Latvijas lielakas ezeru salas - Viskuža salas (309,2 ha) vidu! Viskuža sala atrodas Usmas ezera, kura ir savdabigi un interesanti vietvardi - katrai ezera dalai jeb ertei, licim jeb dangai, seklim, krastu izvirzijumam - ragam, ka ari laucei, pauguram un ieplakai uz salam jeb kalvam ir savs nosaukums! Kopuma apzinati vairak pa 200 Usmas ezera vietvardi! Piemeram, Viskuža sala atrodas starp ezera dalam jeb ertem - Lužnerti, Luzikerti un Baznicerti! Luzikerte gan lielakoties ir rezervats, tomer dienvidu dala, kur ši erte apskalo ari Viskužu sala rezervata nav! Uz pašas Viskuža salas ir vairaki vietvardi, piemeram Lošrags, Saukumrags, Priežrags, Baktsrags, un nevar aizmirst ari lielako Viskuža salas dangu jeb lici - Ozoldanga!

Ši slepna merkis ir likt izbaudit apburoši savdabigo Viskuža salas burvibu un nelikt vienkarši izkapt kaut kur krasta, bet likt izbaudit cik ta patiešam ir liela un doties pastaigat pa šis salas mežu! Ieteicamais laiks, lai dotos uz salu noteikti ir mellenu un meža zemenu laiks (tad pa celam varesiet ari pieesties ogas)! Pats slepnis nav gruti atrodams un gala vieta nav neka ieveribas cieniga, bet ka jau teicu merkis ir likt pastaigat pa salas vidieni!

Ieteikumi: Slepnim netuvoties no dienvidu puses, ieplanot ka tiks atstata laiva, jo sala ir diezgan liela, lai laiva ejot iekšiene tiktu atstata bez uzraudzibas, tiem kas parasti izpildas pa nopietno - neieteiktu peldet pari Amjudzes šaurumam, tie kas tomer ies no dienvidu puses, neaizmirstiet, ka Parupju majas uz salas dzivo ari cilveki (nevajag vinus traucet) un neaizmirstam, ka ezera ir REZERVATS, kura atrasties bez atlaujam ir aizliegts (ir dzirdets par 20 Ls soda naudu uz cilveku no 3 cilveku kompanijas)!

[ENG] Cache is located in middle of biggest lake islands in Latvia - Viskuža island (309,2 ha) forest! Usma lake is famous about its place names! Every lakes part, bay, horn and even hollow on lake islands owns it own title! Together are known more than 200 place names in Usma lake!

This cache objective is to feel beautiful forest of this island and walk in it, not just stay somewhere in shore and take cache! Preferred time to get this cache is blueberry and wild strawberry time, because in this island is so much of them! Cache itself is not to hard to find, but as I said target of this cache is to make you walk deeper in this island forest!

Some recommendations: do not try to access the cache from the southern part (there is house on island, do not disturb peoples who live there), I do not recommend to swim across strait from Amjudze and dont forget that in island is Nature Reserve where to enter or to be located in natural preserve is ILLEGAL without proper licenses!
