Geocache Description:

They’re everywhere – and unless you’re looking for them, you would never even notice them. In fact, it’s because they’re everywhere that they become invisible.

Geocaching has helped start to find these invisible everywhere objects, as we’re always on the lookout for a new hide. This cache will take that to a new level.

One of the most ubiquitous of objects is the humble fire hydrant. Until I started planning this cache I didn’t even know where they were on my street, but now I’m seeing them everywhere!

To find this cache you’ll need to do some counting:

Q1: How many fire hydrants are there within 70 metres of the initial coordinates? = a
Q2: How many fire hydrants are there within 250 metres of the initial coordinates? = bc

Make sure to count all of these style of hydrant, regardless of colour. Watch out for the many possible streets and courts they could be in! You may be surprised by just how many there are!

The cache is at:

S 37° 54.ba1
E 145° 10.(b-c)(a-2)4

Be careful with yourselves and especially any children. There are multiple road crossings involved in solving this cache and these roads are very busy.
