Geocache Description:


 

 

As coordenadas publicadas vão levar-se à primeira torre.
Lá é escondido um cartão com informação importante.

A partir daí tens isto:

 


ENGLISH - EASY EXPLICATION

You will visit 3 places.

1. The posted coordinates will take you to the first tower.
In the street name post there is a hole with a roll of paper.

The paper will show which of the numbers below you use to find the second tower. 
You will find two numbers, LAT and LONG for the formula.
(LAT is the horisontal number in the grid,  and LONG is the vertical number)

N 38 38.LAT W 9 11.LONG 
 

2. The formula takes you to the second tower
The cache is not far from the second tower, so just cound the doors (=A)
and add this little adjustment to the formula:

N 38 38.LAT + (A x 16)  W 9 11.LONG  - (A x 2)

3. The cache was in the wall next to the second tower when I adopted it in 2022
but it gets owergrown and wet, so I moved it to the more interesting ruin below.

 

Para que serve? Bom, têm de ir lá e ver...

Para chegar à cache conte o número de portas da segunda torre (A). Coordenada final:

Latitude_final = Latitude_2ª_torre + (A x 16)

Longitude_final = Longitude_2ª_torre - (A x 2)
