Geocache Description:

Last Known Address Cranbrook

Should be an easy find in the Dead Centre of Cranbrook.

THIS IS A MICRO, it is VERY small.
BRING YOUR OWN WRITING IMPLEMENT!!!

I enjoyed hunting down a couple of richlink's "Last Known Address" series of caches, and having spotted a large number of cemeteries in my travels I asked richlink if I could add to the "Last Known Address" series of caches. I received a reply in the affirmative on 5 May 2009, but I couldn't find my Round Tuit, so it took me a while to place any. (See my GC1RB3G WanAus 95 - Round Tuit if you don't know what that means.)

I was meandering through the countryside on the way to GC2KA92 WA Caching 10th Birthday Bash - Albany 2011 by tangowithcupcake and came across the Cranbrook Cemetery. I was surprised to find it didn't have a cache, so I decided to rectify that situation.

The cache is not at the above co-ords but it is where you will find some of the information to locate GZ.

At the posted coords you are looking for the headstone of Staff Sergeant D. Williams. A = the first DIGIT of his Regimental Number.

Waypoint 2 is at 34° 17.147' E117°33.770' where you will find the headstone of Lieutenant Roy Carlisle. B = the first DIGIT of the Battalion in which he served.

Waypoint 3 is at 34° 17.134' E117°33.773' where you will find the headstone of Private Louis Francis Johnston. C = the fourth DIGIT of his Regimental Number.

Waypoint 4 is at 34° 17.146' E117°33.817' where you will find the headstone of Frank Melksham Inglis. Z = the sum of all DIGITS in his date of birth. D = the sum of all DIGITS in Z.

Waypoint 5 is at 34° 17.153' E117°33.779' where you will find the headstone of Corporal Andrew N. Carpenter. E = the third DIGIT of his Regimental Number. F = the fifth DIGIT of his Regimental Number.

The cache can be found at S34°17.ABC' E117°33.DEF'.

I've tried to keep to the simple style of Richlink's caches, so they are all micro containers, although some are bigger than others.

This cache is a small pill bottle containing only a log, so you will need to bring your own writing implement. Please be sure to put the lid on tightly and conceal it as found, and watch out for muggles.
