Geocache Description:

An easy find after a walk beside the river and along the boardwalks.

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

At the above coords you should find a sign commending an activity by a group of people.
It looks like this:

Using the code A=1, B=2, ...Z=26, add the values of the first name of the first person in the left hand column to get a two digit number = A. Add the values of the first name of the first person in the right hand column to get a two digit number = B.
WP2 = S32 04.[(10 * A) + (A / 3)] E116 00.[(6 * B) + A - 1]

At WP2 you will find a man-made object bearing a series of drawings of insects. Add the values of the second word of the left-most insect to get a two digit number = C. Add the values of the second word of the middle insect to get a two digit number = D.
WP3 = S32 04.[(2 * C) + (3 * D) - 4] E116 00.[(3 * C) + (4 * D) - 3]

At WP3 you will find a piece of infrastructure bearing a six digit odd number. Add the digits together and reduce them to a two digit number = E.
GZ = S32 04.[(2 * A) + (C + 2) + (5 * E) + 3]
E116 00.[(2 * B) + (2 * C) + (5 * E) + 3]

Update 6 Dec 10:
The cache is a drab camo'd 230mm X 160mm X 75mm high plastic container containing a log book, 2 pencils, pencil sharpener, finders cards, Hot Wheels 'Scorcher 2010 HW Premiere' car, spin top, Madagascar 2 'Gloria' figurine, whale, dinosaur, pair of dice, & eraser.

Overhead tree cover had the gps bouncing all over the place, but the coords are VERY ACCURATE.

There is a fairly clear space about 20 metres from GZ, and doing a fresh GoTo from there and projecting forward before the trees cause interference should make it an easy find. If it gets too hard to find I might post a spoiler, but I'd rather not.

This cache is part of a series leading towards my Mystery Cache GC1RN04 WanAus 103 - Bonus Box. You will find a BB number in the back of the log book. You will need to record this number in the format 70? (from Wanaus 70 and ? for the BB number) for future reference.

This is just a suggestion, but it may help you to keep track of the BB numbers.
Every cache page has "*Personal Cache Note" *Click to enter a note, just above Geocache Description:
You could either add the code to each individual cache, or add all numbers to GC1RN04 WanAus 103 - Bonus Box.

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, pencils or sharpener. If you can't trade up or trade even I don't mind seeing TNLNSL in the log. Also please don't put the pen or pencils in the log book bag, it tends to destroy the watertight integrity.

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