Geocache Description:

A number of people have now completed my Kryptos series of caches.
"Kryptos Rubberfish" http://coord.info/GCX5QA
"Kryptos Canterbury" http://coord.info/GCYMHQ
"Kryptos Conundrum" http://coord.info/GC1DEFJ

Did you keep your solutions?
This cache builds on my Kryptos series of caches - you will need to solve (or remember) the final locations of each of the the Kryptos caches in order to solve the location of this cache.

Use the following instructions to solve the location of this cache.

This cache is 61.4km from the final location of Kryptos Canterbury
The cache is on a bearing of 152 degrees true from the final location of Kryptos Conundrum

The above calculations will get you close but may be subject to a margin of error. The following instructions will allow you to fine tune the location that you calculate above so that you can use your GPS to navigate right to the final cache.

If you take the final three digits of the south co-ordinate for the final location of Kryptos Rubberfish and subtract 294 from them, you will have the final three digits for the south co-ordinate for this cache.

If you take the final three digits of the east co-ordinate for the final location of Kryptos Rubberfish and add 59 to them you will have the final three digits for the east co-ordinate for this cache.

The cache is hidden within 20km of the listed co-ordinates. This range has been made deliberately broad so that cachers can't easily guess some elements of the co-ordinates or solve this cache by trial and error.
