Geocache Description:

Our first cache placement and as we have been driven round the bend by puzzle caches, we decided it was time for some payback. We don’t think this is too difficult, but only time and you geocachers will tell.


There is nothing at the above co-ordinates other than somewhere to park your car. The actual cache, which has been placed under the standing permission given by Hampshire County Council, is within 1km of these co-ordinates. Please be respectful of your surroundings and do not go beyond any fence lines that you may see.

To be in with a chance of locating the cache, you’ll need to solve the following:


when did I wake up in a soho doorway? 19AB
1-18 CD
warrick – riley EFG
bloodlines HI
the number appearing twice in 11-10 J

Now use your answers to work out the co-ordinates

N = 51 [D-J][F+E-I].[H-C][B+E-A][(E+C)/J]
W = 000 [C+I][B-A].[F+J-H][IxJ][G+F-E]

You are looking for a labelled click box. The initial swag is not themed to the cache rather we elected to place some things people might find handy

Please do not remove the pencil sharpener from the cache, it isn’t swag but there in case the pencil needs sharpening before logging your find! Please replace the cache carefully.

Once you have successfully tracked down the cache, our team leader, Millie the GeoDog, recommends a walk along the nearby Basingstoke Canal. It has plenty of paddling places and stick-finding opportunities for all you geodogs out there. As an added bonus there are other caches as well, albeit not owned by us!

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.
