Description

Cache NOT at listed co-ordinates, you need to complete not 1 but 2 off Sudoku puzzles to work out location of cache.

The 1st Sudoku is to get you in the mood & the next 1 some people may find it hard & others not so.

So, solve them to work out co-ordinate’s & use the GeoChecker on the menu to see if your location is correct.

Cache is a 20 litre + bucket with many items in it, so you won’t be disappointed.

You will understand the cache placement as there are other caches to be found in area.

All I ask is that you don’t give too much of cache location in your log.

The cache bucket lid fits firmly so it may be hard to remove, just slowly work your way around lid pulling it open.

Could I also ask that the lit be replaced firmly back onto bucket & replaced in a mostly upright position to stop any moisture entering bucket & its contents.

So, the cache location is at S AB° CD.EFG     E HIJK.LMN

A year since this cache has been found! Being a fan of these particular puzzles, I had solved it a while ago. Heading to Warragamba with rogerw3 today we headed to the solved coordinates. Parked not too far away, and MrT headed to GZ with rogerW3 where they made the find. With no time to stop and read, they signed the log and returned as found, and we headed on to Warragamba Dam.

We met up nearby with alnic39, lachnic62, ZoNic66, teamMerlin and Splitty Miller JJCC teamMerlin solved the puzzle last night and a change plans was made as this was "on the way" for most of the group before we headed off to Dural & Hornsby. Glad the day hadn't started to heat up yet and we soon got to GZ. A nice large cache with a lot of things. Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition (hope so as it has only been in the bush overnight). Thanks for the puzzle HansJJ
 
Found whilst doing a cache run in the area with teamMerlin.

With a last minute caching run scheduled for today in order to grab some more points for the States of the Nation scavenger hunt, we looked at solving some newer mystery caches. Fast forward to this morning and our first cache off the blocks was the Nepean Gorge Mystery location. Excellent well stocked caches that the kids really enjoyed. Thanks HansJJ.

best cache ever! Dad let me take a colouring book. I hope that's okay. I didn't have anything to swap.

This was a bit of a "sticky" slog from the road to the rock, but it was a huge cache at the end. TFTC

Team Merlin sorted out the coordinates and it was agreed that the GA gang would meet at around 9 am to find the prize. And what a prize. Zonic was beside herself at the literature on offer. I'm talking about the colouring books. I allowed her to take one and I will endeavour to get back here soon to replace it with something. Excellent container and appreciate the effort that went into putting this on in place.
