This multi-location treaure hunt will take you to five locations in Lismore. At each location you will need to look down to find clues for the next location. The final numbers sought and found will take you to the treasure - a geocache. The distance walking/riding/driving from Location 1 through to Location 5 is approximately 4.5km. Should you choose to walk or the like and need to return to Location 1, the distance between Location 5 back to Location 1 is about 1km. So let the hunt begin!

Location 1. S28° 48.555' E153° 16.604' - Here you'll find a river in the concrete path. To missing coordinates you seek for the next location can be found in this little river. Make sure you look everywhere, even under a seat if you need to, and be careful you don't lose count (like I did a couple of times making this). Location 2 can be found at:
S28° 48.(dragonflies + kingfishers)44 E153° 16.5(Frogs (not tadpoles) + turtles + platypuses + magpies + information lily pads).

Location 2. If you go up a little bit and then look down you will find a special stone with information on and above it. Location 3 can be found at:
S28° 48.2(RRHS marker number + 10)   E153° 16.5( the number value of the first letter of the day of the week this stone was laid - google is your friend here).

Location 3. Looking down here you will find a surname, twice in fact. You only need one though. Each letter has a matching number value based on A=1, B=2, etc. Location 4 can be found at:
S28° 48.(add the first, second, third, fourth, seventh and ninth numbers)3 E153° 16.(add all the letters + 14)

Location 4. Here you will most probably be standing above lthe next numbers needed. Instead of looking down and risking falling down, use the gate and look at what you were standing on. You are looking for a white rectangle with 6 black numbers stenciled onto it. The final location and treasure you seek can be found at:
S28° 48.(the first 3 digit number +5) E153° 16.(the second 3 digit number -4).

Location 5. See hint for treaure location - if you don't get it, google it.  If you are lucky to turn up here at the right time, you may find more treasure for the eyes nearby.

There is a coordinate checker for the final location you can use to make sure you are reading the sign correctly. Should you need any assistance at any other location please don't hesitate to contact me on 0478 647 885.
