Please bring your own pen as the cache currently has no pen (my oversight), also it is recommended that you bring something the write on to keep track of the stage/math/etc.
At each stage you will find at/or near the co-ordinates a sign or plaque. Using the information from each stage below you will be able to work out the number you need to add or subtract from the seconds portion of the co-ordinates. This is the XXX part of S39 03.XXX and E174 04.XXX. Start with original coordinates and then add or subtract to get the next stage coordinates, then add or subract to the new stage coordinates and so on.
The cache at the final location is a cut down 20L camouflaged container.
