Geocache Description:


This pathway is a project initiated by the KCRP Trust.

These pathways will combine to form "He ara Waewae a Kapiti" the Kapiti Coast pathways. The trust is working to make the Kapiti Coast famous for its walkways, cycleways & bridleways. So come and enjoy part of He ara Waewae a Kapiti– a section of the stepping-stones connecting Kapiti.

After answering a question at the starting location you will need to walk (or cycle) south along the pathway

 looking for circular plaques or 100mm x 200mm marble plaques.

At each (+/-3m) there will be a question to answer which will enable you to work out the final co-ordinates for GZ. Note that all the plaques are on the path. But be aware wind blown sand often encroaches from the beach.

THE CACHE IS AT
SOUTH 40 5P.QRS EAST 174 5W.XYZ
WHERE.....

P       (E minus A) + (M minus N)

Q       (J minus L) + (B minus G)

R       (G minus F)

S        (C minus H) + ( C plus K)

W       (E minus F) + (L minus B) + (A minus N)

X       (D plus K)

Y       (L minus E) + (B minus D)

Z       ( F minus A) + ( H plus K)



Use the geochecker once you have solved the puzzle to confirm your solution and receive a spoiler photo to aid you in retrieving the cache. GZ is a well camouflaged container that should be retrievable when the coast is clear.
