Starkey444: Unfortunately, the recent rain caused the river to break its banks and wash away the cache. I will replace soon and make it flood-resistant!!

Geocache Description:


My original and first cache, the Parrot Sketch, has now been extended into a multi-part cache. The concept is simple. Find Parrot Sketch and Parrot Sketch 2. These finds can both be logged individually. Each microcache has a clue leading you to the location of Parrot Sketch 3. Thus Parrot Sketch 3 cannot be attempted without first visiting the other two caches and solving the very simple clue.

Nice thing is, you can log three separate finds after a straightforward 2.6km wander in the country down a straight track.
This is Parrot Sketch 3.

PLEASE NOTE – the co-ordinates given for this cache are the recommended parking place and NOT the cache itself.
To get the co-ordinates for this cache you will have already visited Parrot Sketch and Parrot Sketch 2 and noted the alphabetical letters in the lids of those microcaches.

Parrot Sketch has the letter R (replace R with the actual letter)
Parrot Sketch 2 has the letter T (replace T with the actual letter)

The co-ordinates of Parrot Sketch 3 are

N51.24. R3 - T2 - T     W000.55. R3 + T3 + 6R - T

(replace R and T with the letters in the lids of the two caches)


R and T can be determined from this simple table lookup….

A=6    B=8    C=4    D=0    E=9    F=3    G=2    H=7    J=1    K=5

You might find a calculator handy if your maths is a little weak!

You are looking for a microcache, an aluminium canister, painted black, slightly larger than a 35mm film canister. It contains a log and very small pencil – no room for swaps.

Check your calculated co-ordinates using GeoCheck

 


Enjoy the cache
