Geocache Description:


This is an easy two stage multi cache, just to remind ourselves where and when geocaching started in South Africa. Do your research on this topic and this multi cache would be simple enough.

The given coordinates will take you to your first stage where you would find a small field puzzle to complete, in order to calculate your final destination’s coordinates.

When you arrive at the container, open the box and calibrate your clock. On the front view of the clock, your hour dial should be set at 12’O’Clock. On the rear end of the clock, your hour dial should be set on 2’O’Clock. This would enable you to calculate the numbers needed for your final destination.

A = If you use a 24 hour clock, set your front hour dial on the first two digits of the millennium in which the first cache was planted in South Africa. On the rear side of the clock, you will read of the number needed.

B = If you use a 24 hour clock, set your front hour dial on the last two digits of the year in which the first cache was planted in South Africa. On the rear side of the clock, you will read of the number needed.

C = Use your front hour dial and dial into the month (on the side of the clock) of that year, in which the cache was planted to retrieve number C.

Your final coordinates is:

S26º 29.ABC

E28º 21.398

HAPPY HUNTING!!
