Task: Inverse caching following a track.
Description: Pictures will be uploaded to your devise (GPS, phone, PDA). Printed pictures (in limited numbers) are also available at registration. If requested, the tracklog will also be uploaded to your GPS. Following that makes finding the required locations really easy.

Be prepared for the worst!

It is strongly recommended to visit at least one of each type of task to avoid gaining minus points.
Goal: visit the required locations, find the task, solve it, fill in the task sheet.
Distance: about 12-18 km, 500-750 m elevation.
