This cache is not at the marked coordinates. BYOP.
Welcome to Rushall St Reserve, I discovered this hidden pocket of bushland when I was hiding my ‘Cache By the Creek’ the other day. Rushall St reserve has a trail that goes from Station St to Bradford St. For the purpose of this multi you’ll need to start on Station St! The reserve also has Cowan Creek running through it, on the Rushall St side there is a big open grass area & a bench!
This cache is not hidden at the marked coordinates, instead you will need to walk along the trail in the reserve and collect some numbers that will help you figure out the final coordinates. Please be mindful of the neighbouring houses in this area and keep noise to a minimum. There is also no need to go off path! The cache is a bison tube and does not have a pen inside. BYOP.
To get the coordinates you will have to visit 3 points along the path - I’ve marked these as waypoints to help you find each spot easier but if in doubt just follow the clear path. Any logs that contain a photo giving away the final location will be removed. Keep a look out as I've seen some very pretty lorikeets as well as some bunnies & turkeys when in this area!
Stage 1 (Marked on the map):
You’re at the entrance of the reserve on the Station St side. There should be a bunch of poles in front of you that are there to stop the cars coming in.
How many poles are there? (Not including ones on the swingy part of gate - see gallery for reference) = A
Follow the path some more to get to WP1
WP1 (waypoint 1)
You should now see some tree saplings that have been planted. Each one has a protective barrier around it.
What are the last two numbers from the phone number on the protective barrier? = B
Follow the path some more to get to WP2
WP2
You’re now standing on what looks to be the lid of a sewer hole pipe thing.
How many big lines are coming out from the center circle? = C
Follow the rest of the path to get to WP3
WP3
You’ve exited and are now on Bradford St. There is a metal fence stopping people from falling into the creek.
How many big vertical poles are there on the fence (only count the ones going in the direction parallel to the path)? = D
To check you answers, add all the numbers you've collected together. They should equal 70.
Final Coords:
Now use ABCD to figure out EFGH which will give you the final coordinates.
E = A - 3
F = B + 6
G = C / 3
H = D - 2
Final coords: 33.7HGHG° S, 151.EF7° E
Good luck!
