There is no cache at the published coordinates. They are the
coordinates for waypoint 1. The cache is located within 2 km of the
published coordinates. It has taken me a couple of weeks to finally
finish this cache, there were a number of problems to solve
connected with placing the physical cache, so I decided it was only
fair that the seekers should have a bit of a run around too.
At each waypoint you are required to collect a barcoded number
and use this in the solution for the final coordinates. But there
is a little number puzzle to solve first before you head out.
Puzzle
Complete the next 6 sequences for the following:
Now use the last (10th)sequence in the solution.
To solve the coordinates go to each waypoint in turn and collect
a barcoded number you will find there.
Waypoint 1 is located in the Craigieburn
Estate. This is a scenic spot which is undergoing
development.
To read the history of the reserve I suggest you visit the dunedin
amenities society website for information.
At this location you need to collect a single. barcoded number.
Waypoint 2 is located up a short but steep bush track less than
100 m from where you may park.At this location you need to collect
the lower of two barcoded numbers you will find there.
To solve the coordinates
From the highest barcoded number, subtract 10 a, where a= CAD +
HUT
From the lowest barcoded number, subtract 31 b where b =T0P +
QYZ
Coords expressed in the form S 45 ## ### E 170 ## ###
