This cache can be commenced during daylight but the actual
finding of the cache can only be completed after dark
You are required to collect information, do some calculations,
some driving and go walking in the dark in reasonably open forest
and light undergrowth. All calculated (or projected) waypoints
should place you on a road/track or in a designated parking
area
A GPSr, pen or pencil, paper, scientific calculator, some grey
matter and a good bright torch are all you need to find the
cache
If you are a bit rusty on your trigonometry you can find
information on the Sine and Cosine rules (along with some examples)
here and here
The cache is approximately 35 litres in size and contains a
veritable cornucopia of goodies along with the traditional log book
and pen. Large swaps and TBs that are precluded from the plethora
of small and micro caches can find a home here
Location 1
S 36º 34.534’
E 145º 55.848’
There is a lot of information here on things to see and do
For further information or assistance you can call
ABCDEFGH
Location 2
S 36º 3(H-C). (B-A)(C+E+D)(G+E-A)’
E 145º 5(A+D).(F-C-E)(B-C-E)(D+E)’
Treat this place with due reverence and collect the following
information:
Total number that served = JKLMNO
Served in the SW = PQRSTU
The identification number of the one here different from the others
= VWXYZ
Location 3
The brackets do not imply multiplication
Location 3 is on a bearing (from True North) of
(V-U-J)(K+N+Q)(F+X-C).(Y-Z) ° from Location 1 and
(T+M-G)(S+D+Q)(N+O+P).(B-M+X)° from Location 2
For calculation purposes, Locations 1 & 2 are
(V-Z)(F+P)(K+O+N)(D+W-L)metres apart
You may confirm that your are actually at Location 3 by checking
that you hare parked adjacent to the triple-barreled tree in the
Location 3 photo (of course it may be a bit tricky to find in
the dark but this isn't meant to be easy)
The path should be bright but don't forget what you have already
learned
Thanks to Fearless Leader, Nick and Josh for Beta
testing the cache (and Stickler for the Gamma testing that
uncovered a couple of remnants from the Beta testing)
