About SideTracked Caches
This cache belongs to the SideTracked series. It is not designed to take you to a magical place with a breath taking view. It's a distraction for the weary traveller, but anyone else can go and find it too. More Information can be found at the SideTracked Website.
1. The cache isn't at the posted coordinates, but you will have to go there to get the information needed to find the cache.
2. You are the owner of a "Reverse-Geocache-Box", which will tell you the distance to the final cache, but not the direction. The Cartridge from -Waldmeister- can be downloaded here. His The Reverse Cache is the original cache.
3. You will need three six-digit numbers to activate the cartridge. Go to the posted coordinates to find the numbers.
4. The posted coordinates will take you to the entrance of Grove Park station. Look down at the ground, and you will see a black cover on the pavement.
5. At the bottom of the cover are three words on three lines in the following layout.
XXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX
XX
6. Convert each of the letters to numbers based on its position in the alphabet, where A = 1 and Z = 26.
7. Add up the numbers in each row, and use the following formulae to calculate the three six-digit numbers.
Total of numbers in top row * 8629 + 71
Total of numbers in middle row * 4711 + 41
Total of numbers in bottom row * 7123 + 14
8. At the final location, you WILL need special equipment to get to the cache. Check the attributes. The cache is regular size and very colourful, so quite easy to see.
