Geocache Description:


The Cache can be found at S45 4A.BCD E170 3E.FGH

These toilets are located on the main street of Port Chalmes, just up the road from the shops. if you're coming from the city there is a regular bus service from the bus hub, a very good bike route that is off road for most of the way, or car parking just by the toilets. From here to waypoint 2 it is about an 80 metre gain in altitude so if your walking from here you might want to give yourself up to two hours including the time you spent here. If driving then you might want about an hour from arriving here.

From the footpath you will see, sheltered by the porch, two blue doors that give access to the two seperate units. This structure is of the wheelchair accessible Permaloo variety and the set up inside is similar to the others that I've described. According to agris.com they are available 24/7. Everytime I've been here they seem to get a reasonable amount of use. I've always found them clean, tidy and lacking any mal odour.

At the given coordinates

A = Subtract the first digit of the PT number from the second

B = First digit of the address x 2

At WP1

This is at a carpark. Look across the road and you will see a tall monument with a plaque on it.

C = Number of people who lost their lives on the homeward voyage + 1

D = Sum of the last two digits

Now cross to the other side of Brallleys Track where you will see another plaque.

E = Number of organisations who erected the lookout  x 2

Now cross back over the main road to the anchor just below the carpark

F = Last digit in the year that it was finally hauled ashore

G =Third digit in the date on the bottom right hand corner

H = Number of lines of writing minus 13

Checksunm A to H = 46
