The given coordinates will take you to a landing in Regents Park the same site as Hello Mrs first cache now archived. Those of you who found the previous cache will enjoy revisiting this delightful spot where children can feed the ducks and play in the playground nearby as you gather information
At the landing, answer the following questions to calculate the distance (in metres) and bearing degrees (true) needed to project the WP for the cache location using a function of your GPS.
A = number of round top posts supporting the upper platform.
B = number of floor boards on the upper platform.
C = number of floor boards on the lower platform minus one.
D = number of round top posts supporting the lower platform.
E = number of round top posts supporting both platforms.
F = Number of steps on path immediately above platforms
G = Number of platforms
Distance = (A x B) + C
Bearing degrees = 2D(D + E) – (F + G)
A short 5 minute walk along a paved route will take you to the cache site where there may be fewer muggles present.
The cache is a camo 400ml sistema container. It contains log, stash note, pencil & sharpener and a selection of swops.
Edited 10 June 2009. The bearing formula for the final coordinates corrected with help from rediguana. Many thanks.
