Geocache Description:

Easy 3 step Puzzle

The original bearings show interesting geological and social/ historical features here. In the distant long ago, what was this site used for? (that's rhetorical- no Q to A yet)

Here there is an exaggerated denuded patch, with sunken obelisks, surrounding several small pond like structures.

For keeping the tinnies cold?
For Fishing?
As a baptismal font?
For sacrificial rites?

Either this site has been preserved when the park was landscaped, or the work experience boy had a bit of fun while the boss was watching the baseball game on the fields below.

Anyway, WP1 sees the original location of a traditional Prayer pole which held a number of incense sticks or bamboo stalks at the center (remnants may still be visible of what quiet_1 assures me was a native bee nesting habitat)

Wp2
From Wp1 take a bearing of 110* (from true N), and a distance of 55m
This will bring you to a more recognisable landmark with Q to A to determine GZ

A= number of seats
B= number of large rocks within a 3m radius
C= distance to Epping rounded to nearest KM
DEF= distance to Melbourne
GH= distance to Whittlesea

GZ is at S 37*39.A(B-D)C E 145*03.F(E/A)(H-G)
