- The cache that is terrain T2 has a difficulty that is higher than the Traditional cache.
- The cache found by Tealby has a difficulty half a star lower than the cache found by AngelG27.
- The cache that is terrain T3.5 is either the cache found by BatGirlandCo or the cache found by Fox in Jox.
- The Virtual cache wasn't found by mtbikeroz.
- Of the cache with a difficulty of D3.5 and the cache that is terrain T4.5, one is found by BatGirlandCo and the other is the Earth Cache.

After you solve the puzzle put the answers in the table then multiply the difficulty and terrain rating of each row, then round down to the nearest whole number. Then use these values in the formula for the south and east fractional minutes. If you want don't want to solve the puzzle, then you can always put all 5,040 different combinations into the checker below :)
GZ is at:
S 35° 26.SSS E 149° 07.EEE, where:
SSS = BatGirlandCo x JmanJezza x mtbikeroz + BatGirlandCo
EEE = Fox in Jox x Tealby x ZQX + AngelG27 + ZQX
