First picture mystery in a series of four. This one is about the bridges in Helsinki.
Other mysteries in this series:
Helsinki - Libraries
Helsinki - Parks
Helsinki - Islands - bonus
Helsinki is a seaside city with many islands and two rivers, so theres bound to be lots of bridges. Your task is to recognize the places in pictures and collect some info. The bridges shown here are quite easy ones to recognize, allthough they are spread around city.
The mystery shouldn't be too hard if you're familiar with this lovely city, occasional visitor might want to ask for a little help. Best way to find the answers is just keep caching, there are lots of other caches in the neighborhood of shown places.
A - Find out which street leads straight to this bridge from south.
Number of the letters in that street's name = A
P.s. Try something different than google maps :-)
B - This bridge lies in a park which is named after a person. Who is this person?
Number of letters on the persons last name = B
C - About 200 meters west from this bridge there is a place where a certain year has significant meaning.
This year = C (earliest year, if you come up with more than one possible answers)
D - Very near to this bridge is a restaurant.
The building itself is much older than the restaurant and was constructed in = D
E - On both sides of this bridge there is an island,
letters in the name of both islands combined = E
F - Upper number in the shown place = F

N = 60 (E*C-B*D-40*A-13)/1000
E = 24 (A*D+(A-F)*C+A*E*F-34)/1000
Cache should be accessible even in deep snow, allthough if you're under 170 cm you might have some minor difficulties. In addition there is a possibility of getting your toes wet.
