Geocache Description:

A nicely painted bus shelter in Glenleith is the first port of call.

Go to Kereru Island at the above coordinates and take its 4 digit number. 1st digit = A, 2nd digit = B, 3rd digit=C and the fourth digit is D CHECK SUM = 19
Now use these numbers to calculate the coordinates of the cache as follows.
S 45 50.MNW E 170 29.XYZ

M=1/2 (B+C)

N= D-C

W=A

X=D-B

Y=C-B

Z=X

Please note, the DCC have recently renumbered the old bus shelters, and the labels are no longer the highly visible ones that may be seen on Google Earth. You will have to solve this on site.
