Geocache Description:

Awesome Forces


New Zealand is a land of fire and ice. Straddling the boundary between the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates, the brutal collision of these crustal masses regularly shakes everyone and gives rise to the fiery volcanoes of the North Island and the soaring beauty of the Southern Alps.

These geological events can make sudden dramatic changes to the landscape, and are frequently tinged with tragedy.

The cache can be found at s41 05.ABC e174 52.DEF where:

A = Seddon

B = Wairarapa - Napier

C = Kaikoura + Christchurch

D = Edgecumbe - Tangiwai

E = Christchurch + Edgecumbe

F = Tarawera + Wairarapa - Seddon

Checksum = 34
