Geocache Description:

This is a two part cache that will take you on a pleasent walk along the River Hamble.

The main coordinates provided above mark the position of a monument. On this monument are three plaques with writing on them. To obtain the coordinates for the actual cache site you must use the 3rd and smallest plaque to solve the following puzzle.

NUZ LK.UYM WXQW JC.PLG

Each letter in the puzzle should be replaced with the number of times that letter appears on the plaque. For example if the plaque read 'I am addicted to Geocaching', the letter G would become 2, the letter A would become 3, and so on.

The actual cache site is just over three quarters of a mile walk from the monument. After rain there can be some rather large puddles to negotiate so welly boots are advisable. The walk is most picturesque at high tide. The cache is hidden in a standard sandwich box with a green lid. It contains the usual array of childrens toys as well as a disposable camera. Please feel free to take a picture of yourself and I will post all the pictures on the web once the camera is full. Please return the camera to its bag after use to protect it from the elements.There is a small car park adjacent to the monument and another at N50 51.248 W001 18.372. Both car parks provide free parking.

This is our first cache. I hope you enjoy visiting it as much as we have putting it together.

The photos from the first cache camera are now available here [Click Here]
