At the listed coordinates is a statue of a barefoot navigator of some renown, who will guide you on your quest for a secret stash containing a much-prized stamp.
At each stage, you will be told which direction to go and how far away, in a straight line, the next stage is.
Tip: Mark a waypoint on your device at each stage then walk in the direction indicated until you reach the required distance from your waypoint.
The course to follow is along formed and signposted trails until you reach Stage 5. From there, it's a short rock scramble off-track to the cache.
Stage 1: In the direction the navigator is looking is a sign. Follow the top arrow along the trail until you are 118 metres from the navigator.
Stage 2: Track junction. Continue straight ahead until you are 70 metres from here.
Stage 3: Track junction. Turn right and go 168 metres from here.
Stage 4: Track junction. Turn right and go 174 metres from here.
Stage 5: Side track with steps. Find the ten-letter word engraved into the top step. Using A=1, B=2, etc., sum the values of the letters to find the three-digit number X. A worksheet is provided on the cache page that you can print out to make this easier if you wish (or just use an online word value calculator). As a quick confirmation check, the sum of the digits of X is 8.
The cache is located at
S 33° 25.(X+477) E 151° 21.(X-121)
If all has gone to plan, this will be about 25 metres away off the side of the trail and down a short rock scramble to a cave.
The cache is a 1 litre Duratech instrument case with logbook, pencil and the letterboxing stamp. Do not remove the stamp! I haven't included an ink pad as it would likely dry out in the summer heat, so if you want to use the stamp you'll need to provide your own pad.
Congratulations to Mr&MrsFish and family, the first to navigate the trail.
