Geocache Description:


[LAT] Slēpnis ir balta, apaļa nozarkārba, kura ir nostiprināta pie sienas un satur viesu grāmatu, zīmuli un aprakstu par slēpņošanu nejaušiem atradējiem. Tas atrodas Ugāles ūdensdzirnavās, kurās tagad darbojas Gravas HES.

[ENG] Cache is white, round electric connection box, what is screwed on the wall. It contains logbook, pencil and stash note.  It's placed in Ugale Watermill, where now works Gravas hydro electric station.

[LAT]Ugāles ūdensdzirnavas celtas 19.gs graudu malšanai tuvējo pagastu iedzīvotājiem. 20.gs. sākumā Ugāles dzirnavās  sāka nodarboties ar vilnas kāršanu un galdniecību. Tas bija attīstīts rūpniecības uzņēmums, taču rūpnīecību izjauca 1933. gada 24.decembra ugunsgrēks, kurš nopostīja gandrīz visas ūdensdzirnavas. 

[ENG]Ugale Watermill was built in 19th century for grain milling for nearby village residents. In the begining of 20th century there started to practice with wool carding and woodworking. That was developed industrial plant, but in Christmas eve in 1933 all was destroyed by fire.
