Geocache Description:


This is a simple multi which you can actually start from the comfort of your home if can visualize a set of mailboxes OR go to the posted coordinates and do it from the comfort of your car!!!  Whichever makes you happy!  

Bowater Mersey is a well-known caching area with all the dedication series plus some great challenge caches.  The main entrance used to be off Highway 103 but it has now all been re-vamped and the new entrance is off the St Margaret's Bay Road.

Knowing that some people may not be as familiar with the area I felt a geocache at the actual entrance would be helpful. 

The final has a lovely view of the towers from a different angle than what you get from the highway! 

Have fun and be safe!! IF you are alone caching deep into  bowater getting dedication caches - please tell someone, there are areas with NO cell coverage and if you get into trouble, no one will know where to find you!

There is plenty of parking at posted coords and the final.

N44 42.ABC     W063 53. DEF 

The coords will take you to a group of 3 mailboxes, each numbered 1,2 and 3 at the top left corner.  

To get ABC look at the MIDDLE section or set #2

A = on top left side, count down 3 boxes (count the top one) ,  what number is it?

B= on the top far right, count down 2 (count the top one),  what number is on that box?

C=what number is on the top far right?

To get DEF  look at the Far right section or set # 3 on top left corner.

D=  On top right side, counting the top one, go down 3, what number is on that box?

E =On the top left side, counting the top one, go down 4, what is the 2nd number ?

F= On the middle row of this set, counting the top box, count down 3.  What is the number on that box?

This is too easy!!  Do you really need a checksum?

 

 

Congrats to Hirtle for the FTF!!  Woot!
