This cache is at a stunning spot overlooking the Marlborough Sounds. You get bird's eye views of Queen Charlotte Sound, Tory channel, The Northern Entrance and Curious Cove.
This is a multi Cache.
Turn off the Port Underwood road at the saddle and drive along the road on the ridgeline for 2.4 km, park at the gate at S 41 16.112 E 174 07.390
You will need to walk ten or so minutes to the first set of coordinates.
When there, find the vertically written number on the grey transformer box. Use it to get the final coordinates.
A = The first number.
B = The number of 3's in the main number.
C = The third number.
The final cache is at:
S 41 15.(A+B)CA E 174 06.(A+B)(Bx2)(Ax3)
There is a track that will lead you through beautifull native forest. It starts on the opposite side of the tower from the transformer.
It is about a 10 minute gentle walk to reach the cache. When you get to the lookout, walk a little to the right to the open space.
WATCH YOUR CHILDREN HERE - THERE IS A ALMOST VERTICAL FACE BELOW YOU.
