Geocache Description:

Adventure King


This cache is located in the beautiful garden of Constantia Business Park with paved walkways.
The business park is situated in Constantia Kloof area in Roodepoort.

In order to find this cache you need to visit three waypoints and do a calculation.
At the first waypoint #1(S 26 08.890 E 027 55.549) you will find a number of waterfalls and at waypoint #2
(S 26 08.879 E 27 55.561) you will find a four-digit clue. Now add the amount of waterfalls together to form a
single digit and subtract it from the first two digits you found at waypoint #2, this will be the seconds for your
Lat. Now take the amount of waterfalls and double it, add the single digit you got from the waterfalls.
Almost done, now subtract the answer from the last two digits of your clue and this will form the seconds for
your Long. If you want to, you can convert the seconds to decimal minutes by dividing it by sixty.
This will take you to waypoint #3. Look for a 500ml plastic bottle hidden between the rocks.
You do not have to move any rocks just stick your hand in and remove the bottle.
This will give you the final location. It is best to do on weekends when there is less traffic at point #3.
It is possible to do during the week but after the gate at #3 is closed and the guard has left around 18:30.
The cache is in a 1.5L container in a black plastic bag well hidden under a large rock.
You do not have to move any rocks just stick your ARM in and remove it.

The original contents:
  • A world Ball
  • Scissors
  • Calculator
  • Flower Key Ring
  • Stapler remover

Enjoy your Hunt!
