This later turned out to be the remains of some art project, but still, how cool is it to come across this on a hike?
Mystery surrounds 70 pairs of shoes filled with butter in woods
By The Associated Press
(10/10/03 - STOCKHOLM, Sweden) A couple hiking in the mountains of far northern Sweden found 70 pairs of shoes, all filled with butter. Officials have no idea who put the shoes there, or why.A provincial spokesman says the buttered footwear ranges from sneakers to boots. There are even butter-filled high heels and tap shoes. Each contains about a pound of butter.
The province spokesman says they'd like to catch the person who did it and make them clean it up. He says it's going to create quite a mess when the butter starts to spoil.
Officials say they'll wait for snow, so they can get a snowmobile into the area.
