The weather is so cool in near months, it is not a good idea to go for outdoor geocaching, thus, I setup this cache accordingly, GPS is not quite helps, listed coordinate is an entry of a library -- Ma On Shan public library, cache is located at the upper floor of the library, you need check cache clues on some books.
In order to check these clues, an UV light is required, firstly, you need find the book# "623 . 89 MACN" -- "Geocaching for Dummies", if this book is not available, you can find the spare book # "910 . 285 MACN" -- "GPS for Dummies", then check an UV mark on the side of the book for involved pages(the mark inside a circle), check these pages carefully by the UV light for hidden clues, follow these clues, you can reach the final cache.
In order to minimize the book missing problem(eg. lent out/occupied by other reader), I set up main book(1st) and spare book(2nd) for each field puzzel stage, but if a geocaching team visiting the cache and would like to play for a cache hunt racing, they can separate to "Group A" and "Group B", group A look for main books, an other group look for spare books, in the end, the final books of groupA & B will point to the same cache hidden location(Final hidden spot).
To make sure your UV light is workable for this cache, you can try to check the UV code for some common HK banknote(See attached photo for $10/$20) before go.
