Geocache Description:


These co-ordinates will bring you to a prominent feature in this City’s central park. If you "rise" to the occasion you will find a pointer to the districts main landmarks which will reveal the numbers required to complete the cache co-ordinates.


Cache Co-Ordinate:

S36 48.A    E144 18.0B

Where:

A = 189 plus the distance to Lightning Hill in miles.
B = 53 plus the distance to Mt Alexander in miles.
 

Due to access to the above co-ordinate clues being unavailable at times, for whatever reasons, and perhaps for fear of climbing or heights, final co-ordinates can be calculated from the plaques located at GZ.

Or perhaps, use both high and low clues, to confirm your final destination.
 

A = CDE
 

where:

CD =  the first 2 numbers in the year the project was initiated.
   E = the number of organizations that funded the project minus the number of letters in the third word of the project title.
  

B = FG
 

Where:

F = the number of letters in the first word of the project title.
G = the date the project was initiated taken from the date of completion, minus 1.

The object you seek is a 2L screw top container holding the usual log book, pen and some trinkets suitable for exchanging, should you so desire.
