Description Deutsch (German)
Microcache hidden near the confluence of T. Lumiei and T. Novarza. There's almost no satellite reception in this area, so follow the description and take the spoiler-pics with you.
From Ampezzo follow the roadsigns to Sauris. After a few switchbacks you'll find a small parking area with a sign near N 46° 26.924 E 12° 46.221Follow the trail down into the gorge where you reach a tiny foot
bridge above the here extremely narrow canyon of Torrente Lumiei.
Before the road to Sauris was built in the 30ies, this bridge -
then called Pedanca del Buso and made out of wood - was part of the
main way between Ampezzo and Sauris. After you cross the bridge
take the northern path which takes you down into the canyon of
Torrente Novarza. There are some fallen trees on this part of the
path but with some care you'll should reach the creekbed easily.
Once in the creekbed of T. Novarza follow the creek downstream
until you find a man-made tunnel on the left side of the canyon. Go
through the tunnel and search for the cache on the left wall near
the tunnel exit.
Don't miss the last narrow part of the canyon of T. Novarza on your
way back. The eastern path near the bridge brings you to the open
space above the narrow canyon of T. Lumiei. If you don't mind
getting your feet wet, you can walk a few meters into the
incredibly impressive canyon.
After thunderstorms or during snowmelt the cache may be unreachable
or very difficult to reach.
