Note: The listed coords will take you to the actual sculpture, the site of the original cache and clues to solve the final puzzle. This cache IS NOT HERE... It has been moved as 3 new caches have been establised within a 160m radius plus the original micro required lots of maintenance (frequently muggled & lots of logbook replacements)... Cache is only about 200m away...
