Geocache Description:

Walk 3

The Russell School's Writers' series is a way for the children of Russell School to display their writing. As you walk around, you'll enjoy some of their favourite places.

Walk 3  would probably take you around up to 2 hours, unless of course you actually enjoy the places you are taken to!!! (You could shorten it by driving from waypoint 1 to waypoint 2). This walk is best walk when the tide is mid to low tide, unless you don't mind being in a little water!

Enjoy Flagstaff Hill and all that Tapeka Point has to offer, especially Emerald Pool.
To solve this multi you need to find the writing by writers from Russell School, and solve the puzzle using the writing, to get to know where the next waypoint is. Waypoint 1 is straightforward! Waypoint 2 is at S 35° 14.A20 E 174° 07.013, where A = the number of paragraphs in each of the pieces of writing at waypoint 1. Waypoint 3 is at S 35° 1B.810 E 17B° 07.287 where B = the number that is one more than the number of norfolk pine trees originally planted, as stated in the writing at waypoint 2. Waypoint 4 is at S 3C° 14.820 E 174° 07.4C0 where C = the number of times, at least, that the writer in the piece of writing at waypoint 3 visits Emerald Pool each summer. The final cache is at S 3C° 1B.7D9 E 17B° 07.D3A where D = the distance stated by the writer at waypoint 4 that you must jump into Emerald Pool.
