Geocache Description:


Melbourne weather, 4 Seasons in the one day.
Rain, Hail, Sun, Wind, Cold & Hot all in the one day.
(well that is what it was when I was here in December)

Seeing as it rains a lot here in Melbourne, there must be somewhere to store the water.

And there was “Eau de Emerald”
This is a nice little picnic and recreation area, hidden off the main roads. Kiddies play areas, BBQ’s, large grassy areas all abound.

At the above Coordinates, you will find a sign and other clues.
Capacity = AB Gigalitres
Completed, Year = CDEF
Catchment area in hectares = GHI
Gate number, 30 metres north = LM
Number of bent poles at this site (see photo) = JK

Proceed to the next waypoint by using the formula:
S 37º 3 (D-G+L).(G)(2G)(M+2I)
E 144º 5 (B-2J).(H+I)(A+B-I)(H+K-F)

At this point you will find some more useful information:
Number of people on the board = NO (NOTE - N & O are consecutive numbers. The "Board" is a wide interpretation.
What day = TU
What year = PQRS
How many tubular holes = V

Proceed to the final waypoint by using the formula:
S 37º 3(C+E).(F)(M-P-T)(R)
E 144º 5(S+I).(N+Q-O)(2T-L)(V+L)

The theme of this cache is “Eau de Emerald”, so try and bring swaps of this theme, and knowing Melbourne, an umbrella might be handy.
