** THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE PUBLISHED COORDINATES!!! **
ZFPT21 - Final is the last of the caches that comprise the Zargfinders Power Trail that follows the Circuit Walk around Manly Dam. Originally, there were a total of 21 caches around the dam - all placed in January 2013. Over the years much cache maintenance has been done, with many of the cache camos requiring a lot of time and effort to replace. As of December 2023, 8 of the caches have been archived. But this still leaves 13 fun finds and a beautiful walk around the dam!
The easiest way to access this cache from ZFPT20 is via the road - unless the new path around the lake has already been built!
This cache is a camoed 2.3L mayonnaise container in plain view. Please don't drop it, sit on it or step on it, as it could break.
It's a bit of a scramble down the slope to get to the GZ so be careful not to slip.
The difficulty of this cache is based on the fact that you have to complete the Power Trail of 20 caches in order to find the cache. The terrain is just based on the scramble down to get to the GZ.
If you are returning to section 1 or 2 from this cache, it is best to follow the road. If you follow the shoreline you will need to wade through the water at times.
The Puzzle:
To determine the coordinates for this cache, you will need the 9 clues (A to I) that can be found in the caches along the Power Trail.
Not all caches contain a clue - but two of the archived caches did have clues, so are provided here:
F=6 and I=5
If you find the other 13 caches and then discover that you don't have the remaining 7 clues, please feel free to give us a call on 0431 872 030. We don't want you to have to miss out on the final simply because you forgot to notice a clue.
The final cache is located at: S33 46.JKL E151 15.MNO
where:
J = H-E
K = A-C
L = I+G
M = DxB
N = F+G
O = D+E
