1. Go to N51° 04,966   E 6° 47,434 and solve following tasks:
a) Find the word "KREIDE" (not the one on the board!) and note the assigned number = x
b) Locate the signs "SÄULENBASALT" and "SANDSTEIN mit Pflanzenabdrücken" (close to each other). Add the assigned numbers (... Millionen Jahre) = y
Now continue at: N51° 04,(x*3+2)(4)   E6° 47, y*2-18

2. Look for the year on the cross (ABCD) and count the letters of the longest word shown = E
Next task at: N51° 04, [(checksum ABCD)*20+25)]   E6° 4(E), (E*7-AB)

3. Count the buried stumps which belong to this fitness station = F
Proceed to N51° 04, (turn F upside down)(C-A)9 E6° 48, (D-C)(F-9)4

4. Open the window, take your compass and determine the direction to the middle of two chimneys, which are quite close to each other (on a light building) - this bearing is G (round up this value to the next decade (e.g.: 32° = 40 = G)
Next waypoint: N51° 04, C (G-21) E6° 48, (G*2-25)

5. Look for a small metal plate providing you further clues.
At N51 04.(H) E6 48.I you may continue.

6. Count the vertical bars = J
Proceed to: N51° 04, (H+61+J) E6° 4(F-2), [(I*15+(J*7-1)]

7. Which depth (Tiefe) is shown on the board = L?
First digit of L = K

8. Cache at N51° 04, (J+2)(K*4)(F-7) E6° 47, [(L+1)/3](F-K-1)[I/(G-4*L+5)]

Please don't walk cross-country. You can use a path to approach the spot (just 20 meters offroad).
