Geocache Description:

Ten windmills

The wind farm Heiderscheid-Kehmen started with three E-40 (500kw) windmills in 1998. In 2006 seven E-66 (1800kw) windmills were built and the site became the most powerful wind farm in Luxembourg.

To find the stash, you have to accomplish the following tasks:
At the above coordinates you can see all the generators, the three small ones and the seven big ones.

At the E-40 windmill, you have to count the bolts that are fixing the mast to its concrete base. The number of bolts gives you A.
By car, bike or on foot, you have to find the E-66 windmill that has a metal plate on its base on which is written the serial number W-01284-001. The last number written on the door of the windmill gives you B. (HDD-0?)
You continue your visit to the windmills and you try to find HDD-06. The last number on the metal plate on the concrete base gives you C.(W-01284-00?)

To finish your search, you go to B0D-04 and again the last number on the metal plate on the concrete base gives you D. (W-01284-00?)

Now you can calculate the final coordinates:
North 49° (A+B+C+D-1). (AxBxC)-12
East006° 0(A/B – 3xC). (Ax(C+D)) – 2xB

All the E-66 windmills have solid paths that lead to them, so please don’t cross the fields.
When the weather is really foggy, you should do another cache.
Enjoy the place!
