Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

This is one of a series of four caches. All of the cache names and clues have a 'Big Arnie' theme, and will require a little investigation and problem solving.
"What can I say, I'm a geocacher" (woeful movie mis-quotation)

This cache is a little tricky, and may lead you on bit of a wild goose chase if you are not careful. The posted co-ordinates for this cache are for the entrance to the general caching area. Below you will find a single set of co-ordinates.

S 32-42.673 E 151-32.688

The co-ordinates are for the actual location of the cache. Well, almost.

The co-ordinates are wrong, just a bit. You will need to add or subtract a number to the decimal parts of the co-ordinates in order to get the correct location.

But do you add, or do you subtract? Which will be the truth, and which the lie?

I won't be cruel (well, not too much). The cache is hidden slightly off the bush track walking trail. Now you'll just have to check both possibilities to find something that matches the right area to know if you are on course.

And the mystery number? Glad you asked. Watch the movie True Lies to answer the following:

'How old is Harry's daughter at the start of the movie?'

Good Luck.

Of course, it's a bit more covered up than this.

Found as part of the Canberra Invasion to Newcastle/Nelsons Bay/Port Stephens and surrounding areas with Tealby, Tankengine and Mtrax. This one was day one and with our over night accommodation at Raymond Terrace, we hit Maitland on the way through.

Great great area. No small trains going by today, but it was a fun walk in. Must of come the back way as we didn't part with any money. A lovely area that I'm guessing gets looks of visitors over the warmer months. Thanks for showing us.
