Description
Mac-Multi
A nice little stroll in and around the suburb I call home and along part a familiar track for the geo-pooch. After finding the cache, continue on and enjoy our back yard.
The cache is a two off-set multi and is located just off a walking track. You will need to visit the posted co-ords (Waypoint 1), where you will find plenty of space to park near by, gather the info, do some sums and head to Waypoint 2. Here you will need to gather some more info, do some more sums ..........
Waypoint 1
Here you should find a light pole with 6 (six) numbers on it, Let them be ABCDEF.
Waypoint 2 can be found at S35 24.(A/F) (F/C+E) (C/E) E149 07.(4*A/E) (E+F+B+D) (C/A)
Waypoint 2
Here you should find a 4 digit number at about chest height. Let them be WXYZ
and then cache can be found at S35 24.(X-W-Z) (X-Z-W) (Z) E149 07.(X+Y) (X) (W+X-Y)

Strange that this one is so unloved! Only 2 entries in the log book, both from 2017!
Thanks,
Pulled up at GZ and the required numbers were quickly obtained and WP2 calculated. Mr Beetle waited in the van while I walked to WP2. Had a brief chat to the neighbour and his ferocious dog [NOT] at WP2 before calculating the final coordinates.
GPS took me to a barbed wire fence where it was obvious I was going to end up on private property. I decided to abandon this cache but as I was walking back to the van at WP1 I noticed a side track and decided to give it a try. The GPS liked it and after a short down hill walk I was soon at GZ where the cache container was quickly located.
So 19 weeks after the FTF I will claim a 2TF. Thanks.
Thought this one had been sitting long enough...and with the size matching one required for the SSS game this week, it was time to head down and check out this dog walking area. Found the first set of numbers and then sat in the car out of the heat to work out the next WP. Turned out the next set weren't far away and once there the chest high numbers were spotted. Worked out GZ and was sort of pleased to see where I needed to go. Once at GZ, the cool little container was found, the log signed and it was then back to car.
Thanks boot65....nice to find a cache of yours after all this time. Keep up the good work !!!!
