Geocache Description:

You've heard it said before, it's not about the numbers! But you will seriously be thinking the title the whole time while doing this cache...


This sculpture has fascinated me since I first spotted it... and every time I passed it, I always thought, now wouldn't that be a good cache...

So your task will be to go and figure out the final coords based on the sculpture. It is only a short walk away.

The sculpture itself has 410 digits on it.. I counted. But don't worry, you won't have to do the same.

SOUTH: 1, 8, 7, 19, 22, 4
EAST: 1, 1, 36, 43, 1, 40, 3

Figuring out where to start will be the hard part... After that it's easy.
But here is a geochecker for your convenience.
For those of you who don't cache with internet on the run, you can use the checksum, 56.

It's a pretty high muggle zone here, so would recommend going at night time... though maybe not alone... while figuring out the hide I was offered illegal substances by some passers by who were already obviously using them... haha.
