Geocache Description:

This is a short Multi Cache you can do while stretching your legs.

The listed coordinates take you to the Transit Centre, there are parking spaces here. If they are taken, you shouldn't have a problem finding parking close by.


All you need to do, is look at a few sculptures in the area (all within easy walking distance) and answer some questions. The Final is also within this area.

* * * * *

Start here at the Transit Centre:

* J * In the Sixties there was a caravan park here at this location. When was it's toilet and laundry building converted into a bus shelter?
Take the third digit of the year.

Now walk over to the Golden Gumboot:

* A * Look at the plaque about the opening of the sculpture.
How many stamps/logos are on it?

* I * On the information board next to the gumboot find the highest daily rainfall recorded in Tully (in mm).
You need the first digit.

* G * In "A Possums Tale" find the 4th word in the 2nd line of the 4th phrase.
How many letters does this word have?

The next sculpture is accross the road, the Sugar Pioneers' Display:

* H * The cane wagons do have 3digit numbers on them.
Look for the middle digit on the second wagon.

* F * One of the men is standing on a ladder.
How many rungs does it have?

* C * How many women are in the display?

* B * How many 'human' legs are in the display altogether?

Walk down the street towards the highway a little distance and you will see another sculpture on your left. It is a tribute to the Pioneers of the area:

* D * Look at the plaque.
Count the number of letters in the 7th word of the 2nd line.

* E * How many canes does the man hold?

* * * * *

You now have all the numbers you need. Walk back towards the Transit Centre or take a seat on one of the picnic tables in the area. You only have to fill the numbers in the appropriate spaces and you will find the cache a short walk from here, at:

S 17* AB.CDE
E 145* FG.HIJ

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.
