A stone's throw away Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

AnTsInRpAnTs: Unfortunately, after many years of stability, there have been problems with this cache being muggled, and more recently removed altogether due to work on the Downs Link path, so it is being archived to make way for another cache to be set in due course.

Geocache Description:

This is an additional, wheelchair accessible, bonus cache which you can find having found the 3 caches (GC3G37Q, GC4YMYK and GC3G36R) around the lake in the park.


If you are in a wheelchair and are unable to reach the ground, you will either need some assistance or some simple 'helping hands' to retrieve a couple of the caches.

Southwater Country Park is located in Southwater, near Horsham. The site covers 90 acres, surrounding the large Cripplegate Lake in the centre. The Downs Link Bridleway crosses the park, and there are a variety of options to take for a longer, more challenging walk. Halfway around the lake is a large childrens' playground with a range of equipment suitable for all ages. Entry to the park and parking are free. At the main entrance there is a Visitor Centre, cafe and toilets which are open weekends, but may have limited opening during the winter. A wide range of watersports are available on the lake, including canoeing, sailing and windsurfing, and there is plenty of wildlife to spot.

INFORMATION FOR THE BONUS CACHE:

The coordinates given are for the main car park. The coordinates for the cache itself will need to be obtained by obtaining values for A, B and C from the other caches and using the formula below:

N: 51 (B-B)(A).(C)(2B+A)(A)
W: 000 (2A)(B-B).(3C)(B-B)(3C)

This cache is fairly small and contains a log book only. You will need to have your own writing implement.

Also contains small memento for FTF!!

It is fairly well disguised and you will have to use your geocacher's wit to spot it. Please make sure you replace it so that it is not easily spotted but is still accessible for wheelchair users.
