2008-01-06. Now you can find the answer to question
no. 3 (which has caused som confusion) right here on the page if
you look carefully :-)
2005-07-22. Hopefully the last adjustments after the
move...
2005-04-20. There
has been some changes, both in the formulas and the final
position.
You have to
find the answers to all of the clues and use them in the formulas
below. You don't have to visit the listed bridges, only the last
one. If you don't want to travel, you will need a map or a mapping
program. The answers can preferably be found on the Internet but
could probably be found at a library or somewhere
else.
The clues will be a bit difficult to find if you don't
understand Swedish.
The cache, a
0,5 litre Curver-like box.

The actual cache is at
:
N 57 AA.BBB
E 11 CC.DDD
where the letters correspond
to:
AA=ANSWER1/ANSWER3/5-16
BBB=ANSWER2/3+185
CC=ANSWER5xANSWER7-12
DDD=(ANSWER6-ANSWER4)*2+26
Use the integer part (Sw:
"heltal") when you have to round the figures.
Please always
confirm the final position by mail before you go there since some
of the questions are possible to find more than one answer to! Or
use Geochecker (Link below)
TIP! There is a good
parking area 200 meters from the cache, in about 330
degrees.
