Geocache Description:


Devon&Somerset 'Fingerposts' - #19 Sampford Arundel

 

First you will need to go to the Posted Coords that will take you to a Fingerpost. You will need to collect some info from the Fingerpost and it's surroundings and then do some simple maths which will give you the correct coords to find the cache.

# The number of letters in the place beginning with the letter P on the Fingerpost, divided by 2 =A

# The number of times SCC features on the top of the Fingerpost x2 =B

# The number of letters in the foundry City on the Fingerpost =C

# If you cross the road a short distance from the Fingerpost you will find a water hydrant, the two top numbers =DE

# Also on the water hydrant you will find a telephone number, you will need to substitute the numbers from the telephone number 0F484 G1198H

By now you should have all the info that you need!

The cache can be found at: N 50 (A+F)(B-F).(H+H)(D-B)(D-H-H)  W 003 (E+F)(D-A).(G+F+F)(B/A)(C)

Checksum for all digits of the final coordinates =52

The cache is a short drive away!

Hope you find the cache! Happy Caching!
