Geocache Description:

An interesting wander through Gosnells City area and Pioneer Park.

Due to my advancing age, I (and my doctor) am concerned about the possibility of my experiencing a medical situation while on the road to Maintain one or more of my 120 GC Geocaches and 50 GCA Geocaches.

If you live near this Geocache, or regularly travel near it, you might be interested in Adopting this Geocache (or more of mine). Please let me (WanderingAus) know by Message at
Geocaching Message Center
if you are interested, including the cache code or codes
(e.g GC17V4V for this cache).


Due to the temporary nature of pens and pencils in my geocaches
BRING YOUR OWN WRITING IMPLEMENT!!!

Since the demise of Little Pioneer by 'The Cache Rangers', there's been a glaring gap in the Gosnells business area. This cache isn't to replace Little Pioneer, that one might follow later. The cache is at S32° 04.UVW E116° 00.XYZ.

At the Start Point you will find an interesting structure with an explanatory plaque. The simple code - a = 1, b = 2, c = 3 .... z = 26 applies.
Convert the three word title of the structure to a 3 digit number and add 252 to get the value G. Now add the digits of G together till you are reduced to a single digit number to get the value U.

Waypoint 2 is 230 metres on a bearing of 179.5° True from the Start Point. Here you will find an interesting representation of a popular mode of transport.
H = 7 * (number of sleepers + 5). Now add the digits of H together till you are reduced to a single digit number, then add 1 to get the value V.

Waypoint 3 is 58 metres on a bearing of 13° True from Waypoint 2. Here you will find another interesting construct with an explanatory plaque.
Convert the three word title of the structure to a 3 digit number and add 342 to get the value I. Now add the digits of I together till you are reduced to a single digit number to get the value W.

Waypoint 4 is 110 metres on a bearing of 44° True from Waypoint 3. Here you will find another interesting construct with an explanatory plaque.
Convert the three word title of the structure to a 3 digit number and add 437 to get the value J. Now add the digits of J together till you are reduced to a single digit number to get the value X.

Waypoint 5 is 45 metres on a bearing of 43° True from Waypoint 4. Here you will find yet another interesting construct with an explanatory plaque.
Convert the four word title of the structure to a 3 digit number and add 363 to get the value K. Now add the digits of K together till you are reduced to a single digit number to get the value Y.

Waypoint 6 is 150 metres on a bearing of 139.5° True from Waypoint 5. Here you will find a terrific structure which rivals similar structures at places such as Lamington, Tahune, Otway Fly and Valley of the Giants. If you haven't visited this area lately you are in for a great surprise.
Convert the four word title of the structure to a 3 digit number and add 431 to get the value L. Now add the digits of L together till you are reduced to a single digit number to get the value Z.

Update:
The cache is a small drab camo'd Sistema clip-lock container, with log book, Finders Cards, a pen, two pencils, a pencil sharpener, and a few swaps.

When trading items please consider trading up or trading even and leaving items that you would want to find, and please don't take the pen, pencil or sharpener. If you can't trade up or trade even I don't mind seeing TNLNSL in the log.

Trackables (geocoins and travel bugs) are not tradeable items. Please feel free take them without making a trade, but please leave a note in the logbook and your online log, and do log them online.

First To Find Award Congratulations to
