Geocache Description:



 

 

A straightforward multicache where you need to work out some new coordinates from the information at the posted coordinates and then go on a short stroll to find the cache

A very strange phenomenon occurred one Christmas in Barwell back in the 60s. At the listed coordinates you will find a plaque commemorating this explosive event.

Whilst the majority of the flaming arrivals were found and collected, rumours abound that there are still valuable chunks hidden out there waiting to be found. Maybe you will get lucky if you are walking round the area hunting for Geocaches?

You will need to gain the following information from the plaque

Year that this event took place = ABCD

Number of metal bars (seat and back)that make up the bench near the plaque = E

The cache can be found at

N52 34.(C-E)(B-A)B

W001 20.(E-D-A)(E+A)A

Cachers need to take care when handling the container IT MIGHT STILL BE HOT!
