To solve this puzzle you will need to visit the five 'Olympic Rings' caches and collect the Olympic Host city names. GO FOR GOLD! Original cache contents are 3 GCA pathtags for Gold, Silver and Bronze finders plus several kiddies swapables.
Once you have the 5 names you need to find the year the Olympics were held in that city. For example if the City was Tokyo the year is 1964.
You then need to make this year into 1 number, so 1964 = 1+9+6+4 = 20 = 2+0 = 2.
When you have these 5 numbers you will be able to locate the cache at;
S31 50.0(Blue)(Black) E115 49.(Red)(Yellow)(Green)
The Olympic flag was originally designed in 1912 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games.
The Olympic flag ... has a white background, with five interlaced rings in the centre: blue, yellow, black, green and red ... This design is symbolic ; it represents the five inhabited continents of the world, united by Olympism, while the six colours are those that appear on all the national flags of the world at the present time.
— Pierre De Coubertin (1931)
And congratulations to the medalists;
GOLD - Chwiliwr
SILVER - The Machman
BRONZE - AusTrackers
