Geocache Description:

Welcome to Hammon. Whilst locals may have a hint towards the area you will finish simply by the title, you will need to spend some time gathering the required information as well as some internet research to calculate the final gz. Good luck and we hope you enjoy and learn something along the way!


===The cache is not at the above coordinates, but you will need to start here to start gathering the required information===

The cache container can be found at the following coordinates: S37 25.ABC, E143 53.DEF

To work out the final coords, you will need to visit 2 points of interest in the town. The coordinates above will get you to the first point of interest, where you will find not only information for ABC, but also for the second point of interest that has the required information for DEF.

How to work out the GZ - find the information required, and use the following cryptic clues. A pen, notebook and internet access will be required (unless you have an amazing knowledge about early Australian politics):

AB- A Knightly Commemoration reversed

C - Our knight may have been born with 20 digits, but what is the most common? (internet required)

 

To get the coords for the second point of interest, complete the following:

S 37 25.(Year - 1409), E 143 53.4(day+19) 

 

D - A surely as day follows night, JC was followed by a short FF (internet required)

E - Just as Creswick gave birth to 14, Trawalla gave birth to....? (internet required)

F - A prime that is not divisible

 

The cache itself is small and well camoflaged. Think slightly larger than a film cannister. Have had to make smaller than original due to muggling 

 

Well done to Saint.Anthony on the FTF.
