BRING EVERYTHING YOU THINK IS NEEDED FOR A DARK COLD NIGHT IN THE WILDERNESS. UPPSALA WINTER EXTREME IS A UNIQUE EVENT. IN MANY WAYS IT IS AN EVENT WHERE YOU CAN MEET OTHER GEOCACHERS, BUT WE ALSO OFFER A FEW HOURS OF FASCINATING GEOCACHING IN THE WINTER DARKNESS.

DARKNESS

AS THE POLAR OPPOSITE TO BRIGHTNESS IS UNDERSTOOD TO BE AN ABSENCE OF VISIBLE LIGHT. HUMANS ARE UNABLE TO DISTINGUISH COLOR WHEN EITHER LIGHT OR DARKNESS PREDOMINATES. IN CONDITIONS OF INSUFFICIENT LIGHT, PERCEPTION IS ACHROMATIC AND ULTIMATE, BLACK. COLD COLD CAN BE DESCRIBED AS EITHER ABSENCE OF HEAT OR LOW TEMPERATURE. THE LOWEST POSSIBLE TEMPERATURE, ABSOLUTE ZERO IS OK WHICH CORRESPONDS TO – 273.15 C. THE COLOR BLUE IS USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH COLD, OTHER THINGS THAT OFTEN ARE ASSOCIATED WITH COLD ARE SNOW AND ICE.
