Geocache Description:


As you know, the Autobot Transformers are always on the run from the evil Decepticons. They often need to create makeshift bases/forts/camps/shelters in the middle of the forest to evade detection. This series is designed to take you to some of their forgotten 'hideouts'...



An Energon cube is hidden near an ancient Autobot Hideout which you must find and sign.

Deep in the forest lies an old Autobot settlement... so old that few Autobot Transformers remember what a beautiful farm/hideout this was many years ago. Even the surrounding trees were not around when this hideout was bustling with activity.

The hidden Energon cube can be found here: N45° 16.(A)(B)(C)' W075° 48.(D)(E)(F)'

Navigate to Stage 1 and observe the Autobot hideout.

A = 7 if the hideout is circular, 8 if the hideout is triangular, 9 if the hideout is rectangular
B = 0 if the walls of the hideout (that remain) are made of stone, 3 if they are made of wood, 5 if they are made of metal
C = 3 if the hideout still has a roof, or 6 if the hideout currently has no roof
D = 0 if the hideout exits west, or 1 if the hideout exits east (i.e. if you were in the hideout and were to leave...)
(At Stage 2) E = 1 if the object is a fridge used to keep liquid Energon cold, E=2 if the object is a stove or E=3 if the object is a well
(At Stage 3) F = 1 if the object is an Autobot Defence lookout platform, F=5 if there are several large liquid Energon barrels, or F=9 if the object is a small Autobot. (Note: It appears that this one is missing. The answer for F is 9. It was a small bicycle in a tree.)
