Geocache Description:


NZ5 and TeamElliottFamily worked in collaboration to make an awesome walk an awesome multi. 
Enjoy the walk through the woods and be inspired by the ingenuity of some super carvers. We expect it will take you 45 minutes to an hour to complete. 

 

WP1 = starting point for this cache walk through the Hanmer forest. This walk will take you on the forest amble where you get to see some amazing forest creations. Head SW from here by making sure you 'follow the dog.'

WP2 - how many furry friends are waiting to meet you? 

WP3 - how many black stripes are on the tail of the lowest forest friend? 

WP4 - how many beady eyes are staring back at you? 

WP5 - how many yellow stripes are on this climber’s harness? +2

WP6 - how many FINGERS (not thumbs) are on this giant friend? 

WP7 - how many front teeth do these friendly rodents have between them? 

WP8 - how many carabiners does this fuzzy friend have? 

WP9 - how many fun guys can you count (both groups)? 

WP10 - how many bumps on this guy’s central spine (count all the way to the ground)? 

WP11 - how many friends are snoozing in the sun? 

checksum =66

 

The final is at:

S42 AB.CDE 

E172 FE.HFD 

 

AB = WP10+WP6

C = WP11 

D = WP7+WP11+WP2

E =WP4-WP2 

F=WP5
