Geocache Description:



Please note the published co-ordinates are a guide only to the location of the container you seek, although as a point of interest they were also GZ for our original cache GCM3F3 "Requiem for a Backlot".

This cache is an iteration of our first hide previously archived following the increase in activity at the adjacent quarrying operation which now appears will not intrude into this heritage area that is being surrounded by commercial development!

The following text is the description taken from our first cache page and we have included it for sentimental reasons and of course for its information about the site.

"It is interesting to note that Chinese gold seekers dug round shafts to avoid corners which they believed could harbor evil spirits.
This site is of particular interest to us as it is close by to one of our first cache finds, now archived, due to quarrying at it's former location.
It is hoped, that with it’s heritage listing, this site will not meet the same fate as it’s neighbor.
Take care if searching at night, and keep to the open areas, as there are some deeper diggings hidden within the trees."

To find the numbers required to locate GZ you will need to place each of these groups of letters into the 9 X 9 graph provided commencing with T in the top left hand corner.

Your first task will be to decide the sequence of placement for each group, and the difficulty level has been established considering some trial and error may be required to identify which "T" group to enter into the graph first!

Once you have arranged these groups into their correct order it becomes a word puzzle where the numbers will be revealed!

Please be aware at all times of the diggings located throughout this site and of the natural hazards associated with searching in an Australian bush environment.

 

Good Luck!
