Geocache Description:

This site, located on 2-14 Wellington Road in Ryde, has been used for a variety of residential, commercial and industrial purposes since the 1920's.

Local council converted a former electrical factory (built in the 1960's) to act as their works depot quarters from 1975 to the early 2000's. Remediation works were carried out as a joint project between the City of Ryde and the Department of Planning to rejoin the Field of Mars Reserve as accessible natural bushland once more.

At the co-ordinates provided, there is a sign that provides an overview of the Wellington Road remediation works project. Using the expected completion date (A/BCDE) and budget ($FGH,IJK), calculate the following equation to find the decimals for WP2. Please stick to the defined walking tracks and 'leave no trace'.

South = E(F+G)(AxA)
East = FEB


At WP2, how many sides does this man-made 'pond' have (U)? Solve the following equation to find the decimals for GZ. To reach GZ, please make your way back to the starting co-ordinates on Wellington Road and then proceed.

South = (AxG)J(U+2)
East = (A+B)U(Ux2)


Other information: Please replace the cache exactly as it was found to prevent it from being muggled/vandalised. BYO pen.
