Someone said once that “There’s always room for one more.”
First there was “Lower Bolton” closely followed by “Upper Bolton” and then “Gone but not Forgotten. “
And anyway it's my 100th cache so why not make it another cemetery mission?!
The given co-ordinates for STAGE 1 will place you at the Bolton St entrance of the Memorial park.
Your quest will take you on a well formed path route to the Memorial gates adjacent to Anderson Park and the Rose Gardens.
It may be advisable to park at the free park areas by the Rose garden and walk down to the start point rather than attempting to find a fee paying park in Bolton St.
Waypoints AA to LL (STAGE1 to STAGE11) can be gathered in any order but a logical route is from AA to LL.
The coordinates, where given, should place you +/- 10 metres of the source you are seeking.
You will need the information gathered to work out the location of the last two waypoints (STAGE12 MM and STAGE13 NN) before doing the calculations required to find GZ which is a camoed 2 litre systema container.
The calculations for GZ require manipulation of the data gathered from a selection of the waypoints including MM and NN. Taking photos and keeping accurate notes will avoid disappointment. You should also be aware that there are a number of contradictions between details on some of the plaques and information boards. These may also differ from information you may be tempted to gather from the internet. Make sure you go with the information at each waypoint even if it differs from previously gathered dates etc.
Good luck with your Quest.
Stage12 (MM) is at South 41 16.ABC East 174 46.DEF
A = (A2 minus C1) minus (G3 minus F3) plus J1
B = (D1 plus B1 plus E2 plus twenty) plus (G2 minus L3) minus F2
C = (sum of digits C3 plus 2nd digit K2) minus (B3 plus L2)
D = (2nd digit E1) minus (L4 minus G1) plus (J4 minus H3)
E = K1 minus (F2 minus F1) plus 3rd digit L5
F = K4
At Stage 12 you will need to complete the data
in the following table by substituting the appropriate numeral/s for the letters a to z.
