Geocache Description:

Located in Manchester City Centre

First of all, the co-ordinates above will lead you to a suggested parking spot for this cache, not the actual cache. In order to find the co-ordinates of the cache, you need to find the Infra Red cache and the Blue cache. Each of those two caches will give you half the co-ordinates to the first part of this cache. This cache will also give you some clues to help find the White cache, which is the final cache in the series.

At the parking co-ordinates there is a multi-storey car park and some free on street parking if you arrive at a quiet time.

Armed with those co-ordinates from Red and Blue, your GPSr should take you to an object with a PURPLE connection. You will see a plaque at this object which will help you find the cache. Work out the numeric values of the following letters on the plaque:

X = 8th line, 3rd word, 1st letter
Y= 1st line, 2nd word, 6th letter
ZZ = 6th line, 1st word, 1st letter

The Ultra Violet cache is at the following location:

N53.28.5XY
W002.14.0ZZ

Once you have found the cache, you will find some clues to find the White cache. These are printed on the back of the stash note and are also written on the front of the logbook.
