Geocache Description:

THERE IS NO CACHE AT THE PUBLISHED COORDINATES. To find this geocache, you must visit the published coordinates, gather some information and calculate the coordinates for GZ.

At the published coordinates you will find a plaque commemorating the 200th anniversary of the first sighting of Pigeon House Mountain by Captain James Cook. Sadly, vegetation blocks the view of the mountain from this location. Good views are available nearby and GZ offers you one, once you've worked out where it is.

First, add together all the numerical digits on this plaque. For example if you saw 1, 23 and 45, you would add 1+2+3+4+5 for a total of 15. Once you have added all the digits, that number is AB. Then, count the number of times the word "Pigeon" appears on this plaque. That number is C.

To calculate GZ, substitute your numbers in the following coordinates:

S35 23.(B+C)(A+C)(B+B)

E150 26.(A+A+C)(A+C)(A+B+C)

GZ is a short walk from the plaque.
