HQ Joint Forces New Zealand
This cache brings you to the location of the Headquarters of the Joint Forces New Zealand. It was established at Trentham on 1 July 2001 to support the Commander Joint Forces New Zealand (COMJFNZ) in his command of assigned forces. These forces essentially include all deployable NZ Defence Force Elements. The HQJFNZ is responsible for the support of and operational-level contingency planning for the NZ Defence Force exercise and activity programme.
About the cache

About the location
The HQJFNZ is found spanning both Granville St and Seddul Bahr Rd in Trentham. You do not need to go onto the NZ Defense property to find any of the answers to the cache's questions. To solve the final resting place of the cache, answer the following questions onsite at the JFNZ HQ:
Final GZ: S41 08.4W8 E175 0X.Y7Z
W = (The North entrance has how many military artifacts surrounding it that represent the NZ Defence Force Elements?) x 3
X = How many yellow warning lights are attached to the top of the road entrance gate on the Eastern side of the complex?
Y = (How many yellow Defence Area signs are attached to the perimeter fence on the Eastern side of the complex?) x 3
Z = (How many cannon are located on the Eastern side of the complex?) x 4

Logging Your Find
I am using a log sheet for all Geocachers to record their success, and when it is full, I will scan the logsheet and attach its image to this cache entry as an archive! Please let me know when the logsheet is nearing maintenance time and I will supply a new sheet.
