Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This multi-cache is to replace the original Close Walker, which we have had to archive due to excessive tampering from muggles. This can be considered as a new cache. It is the 7th in our Leap Valley Series.
The above co-ordinate is for the bridge location, where you have to do some fact-gathering, which will give you the information you need to calculate the final co-ordinate, further afield in a more secure place, away from those pesky muggles.
Find the following facts:
A. How many uprights on one side of the bridge?
B. How many horizontal lengths/poles on one side of the bridge. (Don't count sections).
C. Cross over the bridge, (playing field behind you). Going to the right, what is the lamp-post number?
D. Looking to the left, what is the number on this lamp-post?
E. Carry on along this path curving to the left until you get to the culvert. How many concrete bollards?
F/G At the bus-shelter on the left, identify the number of the bus that stops there. Use these Roman numerals if the bus number has faded on the shelter: F=IV G=VIII.
H/I/J/K/L. On the back partition of the shelter, what numbers follow SGA?
In the calculations below, substitute the numbers from your answers for the letters, to find the final cache co-ordinate:
Co-ordinate checksum = 55
N51 (D - C) (A + D). (A + E) (C - L) (K + D)
W002 (K - H) (G + L) . (B + H) (F + D) (G - D)
The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan on stanthews@aol.com and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
