Episode 21 Review:
- "I was wondering if I should tackle this long multi today as it was getting late but everything fell very well together, In fact it is my favourite Autobot cache. Thank you for the fun." - Rhinograde
- "The prescribed route looks imposing on the map, but the distances aren't all that great, and the reference points were much appreciated to keep us from going astray. The cache was an easy find, and is in great shape. Thanks for another good hike and Autobot adventure - we're looking forward to doing more!" - lostinthegarden
A great battle was fought here and several Autobot Transformers fell by the hands of the Decepticons.
The Autobots hid an energon cube from the Decepticons, which you must find and sign.
To find the location of the lost Energon cube (container), you must navigate to the following coordinates (after solving the riddles):
N 45° 16.(A+2)(B+G+H-5)(C+2)' W 075° 49.(D+1)(E+I+J+1)(F+5)'
Note: The brackets do NOT mean multiplication, each bracket resolves to a single digit.
[FIELD PUZZLE]
You must navigate to the 8 stages and observe your surroundings. The deceased Autobots are located at Stage 8 (which is also the posted coordinates of this cache page (N45° 16.475' W075° 49.691'). It is recommended to find each stage in order. There is also a picture of the suggested route to take below.
At stages 1-7, you will need to observe your surroundings. What you find there will be associated with a number that you will need in order to find the lost Energon cube. The "corresponding number" and coordinates to visit are listed below.
The corresponding number for each "object" that is found at the stages:
- 1 = Autobot mobility devices
- 2 = An Autobot military base, except that this was completely leveled by the Decepticon Bonecrusher [Hint: Google 'G1 Bonecrusher' and then look at surroundings to consider if it's possible that 'he' could have did that...])
- 3 = An Autobot defense lookout tower
- 4 = Liquid Engergon stash. Since only the deceased Autobots knew the location of this stash, the containers have since rusted away.
- 5 = Autobot eyes (2 visibility devices) - yes, the Decepticons did this by torturing a poor Autobot
- 6 = A pick-up truck bed (was meant for the Autobot at GC7RTWN, but he passed away before he could use it)
Destinations to "Observe" at:
- A = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.347' W075° 49.635' (corresponds to Stage 1)
- B = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.349' W075° 49.578' (corresponds to Stage 2)
- C = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.360' W075° 49.564' (corresponds to Stage 3)
- D = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.373' W075° 49.597' (corresponds to Stage 4)
- E = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.417' W075° 49.614' (corresponds to Stage 5)
- F = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.447' W075° 49.486' (corresponds to Stage 6 - Note: I suggest entering the forest at 'P1' to find S7)
- G = Number of 'thing' found at: N45° 16.492' W075° 49.581' (corresponds to Stage 7)
From Stage 7, I suggest then navigating to P2, and then P3 to find the location of the deceased Autobots (Stage 8 - N45° 16.475' W075° 49.691') as this will reduce the amount of bushwhacking necessary. You will notice that there is not much left of the Autobots after being blown up. Once there, answer the following questions
- H = 1 if these Autobots bear the symbol of a true Autobot, or 0 if they do not
- I =1 if in the vicinity of these Autobots are random bits of metal such as cans, or 0 if not
- J =1 if in the vicinity of these Autobots are random bits of glass such as bottles, or 0 if not
Suggested path to take:
Note: If you are "bad" and receive the final coordinates from someone else, please at least visit Stage 8 which has the Deceased Autobots - since this is supposed to be the 'fun' part of this series.
Be sure to private message me if you know of any other undiscovered Autobot burial grounds (old cars/trucks/motorcycles/skidoos/boats or random scraps of metal) in, or near, Ottawa ;) - and don't forget to 'favorite' these if you are enjoying the series.
