Geocache Description:

A short multi cache in remembrance of Sir Edmund Hillary.




The above cords will take you to a Statue that has a small plaque beside it. Use the plaque to work out the cords for the cache location.

The Final Location is: S 36 35.ABC, E 174 41.DEF

Use the following equations to work out GZ:

A = Add up all the numbers in the YEAR the Plaque was unveiled, - 16

B = The number of letters in the Last name of the person who unveiled the Plaque + 1

C = The amount of letters in the Month the Plaque was unveiled, - 1

D = Add the 2 numbers together of the Day (not the Month), the Statue was unveiled.

E = Add up all the letters in The Sculptor's full name, - 6

F = The amount of letters in the First word on the Plaque, - 2

You can walk to GZ, but I'm sure most will drive .Cache is a 400ml container. This is a test container, please inform on how its handling it. Cache contains Logbook, pencil, swaps etc. òa
