This little mystery cache gives you the opportunity to virtually move through the streets of St Just and the surrounding area using Google Maps Street View, this powerful tool available for the area since 2009.
Navigation through Google Maps Street View
With Google Maps Street View, you can move along the streets in two ways:
1. Using your mouse (by clicking on the virtual arrows on the screen);
2. Using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
The orientation (North, South, East, West) is done by using the compass shown on the left. For example, to align the image to the North, simply drag the "N" up to the top of the compass (North). The same result can also be obtained by dragging the mouse on the picture.
Finally, the easiest way to make a "Zoom in" or "Zoom out" is to click the + or - available below the compass (see picture shown on the left). The "Zoom in" will be useful to clearly read some answers.
