Our journey with Geocashing started two years ago.
On an odd day of watching morning TV, an old bearded man spoke about Geocashing. His explanation was utterly boring, but the concept of “looking for treasures” sounded like something our kids would enjoy.
It’s quite a task to keep a family of five busy over the weekends. So, off we go to look for “Coconut”. After searching for at least eight minutes, Hubby finds it. A little magnetic nano. Not entirely sure what to do, we logged the cashe and just put it back. To date we never signed the logbook!
And then we found the cashe that planted the seed of curiosity for the kids. A big cache in Little Falls (GC5CWXP), packed with amazing SWAG <<a must to find!!>>. Each child was permitted to choose 1 item to trade.
And that was that. The bug had bitten!!
Once you solve the puzzle it will give you the required combination.
The physical cache is not at the listed co-ords.
It’s at: S 26° 0(1).(3-2)33' E 27° 4(1).37(4)'
From the piece above (1) = first (2) = second (3) = third (4) = fourth
