Geocache Description:


Located on Park Street in Upper Hutt, the coordinates given are for the initial starting point (car park). There is one microcache which provides coordinates for the main cache, a camo painted 1 litre Sistema container which holds the log book and the usual goodies.

Answer the questions below to find the location of the microcache (a black film canister)

It is hidden at:
S 41 07.ABC
E 175 04.DEF

A = The total number of infant (baby) swings on all the swingsets
B = Number of flying foxes
C = The number of steel poles supporting shade sails over the children’s playground

Check Sum: (A+B+C)=16

D = The total number of slides at the park
E = (The flying fox is not recommended for children under the age of ?) minus (The 1st number of Upper Hutt City Council’s phone number)
F = The number of wooden poles supporting shade sails over children’s playground

Check Sum: (D+E)xF=20

The microcache contains the coordinates of the location of the main cache and a hint to help you find it.

The track to the cache takes you on an approx 20 min walk up through the bush. If your GPS leaves you unsure of which direction to head in, stick to the main track and keep heading up hill. If you are into mountain biking, you could grab your bike at this stage and take the alternative route to the cache, up the track reserved for bikes only.

** Do be wary of Mountain Bikers using the tracks, though separate tracks are provided they do intersect in places **

The cache originally contained a log book, pencils and pencil sharpener as well as:

2 Finger puppets
Packet of post-it notes
Tangle puzzle
Slinky
Address book...

And two Travel Bugs:

Ladybug Travel Bug
Kaden’s Kache Kow Travel Bug
