Now you have the "Braddon Constitutional Cross" marked you should have a coordinate where they cross (We are not interested in too much accuracy):

To get the Coordinate of the cache use the following formula:

  • S 35° AB.CWX
    E 149° D.EYZ
  • W=14-C
  • X=D-4

  • Z=B+3

The Cache is on public land but surrounded by houses all looking over the cache. Be stealthy be careful.
