Shoushan(Mt. Shou), is located at the southwest area of Kaohsiung City, in Gushan District.It is the natural landmark of Kaohsiung City.
The Won Shou Mountain Park is also called the Shou Mountain Park. From here, one can enjoy a distant view of the Kaohsiung Harbor, admire the sunset in Hsitzu Bay (Hsitzuwan), and be fascinated by the night view of Kaohsiung City. More significantly, the park's Nature Preservation Area features the Taiwanese Macaques, who love to play through the trees in groups. With a big of luck, one can watch the fast moving and jumping actions of these funny monkeys. There are also all kinds of precious and rare large mammalian animals, reptiles and birds in the Shou Shan Zoo.
Next to the Shou Shan Zoo is the Martyrs Shrine, which is a Chinese palace-style structure. The shrine offers sacrifices to divine plates of the martyrs from the Chinese civil war. Green trees grow tall on both sides of the shrine, while pine trees are planted specifically in front of the shrine. Nearby the shrine are two ancient cannons that have been preserved for people to reminiscent about the past.
In order to find this cache you have to accomplish 3 stages,
N22° 38.105 E120° 16.647 is the coordinates of the first stage, this is the coordinates of the entrance of climbing from Shousan Zoo side, you climb from here and after climbing about 1 hour you will reach a rest station ,the coordinates of which is N22° 38.753 E120° 16.051 ,and that is the second stage.
At there, you look down and you can see a view of the Kaohsiung City,and if you search patiently,you will find 6 big red English letters (presume they are A,B,C,D,E,F from left to right) painted on the back side of a building,each letter stands for a number which is the alphabetical order of English letters(For example,A=1,B=2,…Z=26),the coords of the real cache site is as below:
N22° 38.(F)(F)(B/5)
E120° 16.(C/5+1)(E/5+3)(D/5-1)
Don’t forget to bring a telescope to watch and a pen to log.
*Original coordinates of final cache was not correct ,because the GPS signal at the final cache is very weak and unstable,so I went back to the place and double check the coordinates ,
N22° 38.(F)(F)(B/5)
E120° 16.(C/5+1)(E/5+3)(D/5-1) is correct one.
