Description

J & J's fifty-fourth geocache hide. Just in time for Australia Day 2017.

 

The geocache is not at the listed coordinates, and I wouldn't advise trying to get to them.

 


 

The cache can be located at:

 

S35°  09. (Robert Gordon Menzies)  (Gough Whitlam)  (Hubert Opperman minus Charlie Jones)

E138°  29. (Ray E Purves)  ((William McMahon plus John Gorton) divided by 2)  (Ben Chifley)

The cache is a small Sistema painted in boring flat black. I might repaint it soon it green and gold livery, or maybe maroon and silver just for old times sake.

Happy hunting!

Found It!
Solved this one some time ago. I guess this is just one of the many perks of been the Prime Minister...
Today I was finally in the area of GZ and after a bit of hunting around in the bush, I found the cache!

I had a bit of a play with this puzzle a while ago but could not come up with anything that was yielding the numbers I required so gave it up for a while and let the grey matter reset!
This morning when I looked at it again, googled something and it suddenly all became obvious. A little bit more research and I had the numbers I required then all that was required was a detour down south. Bingo Mr. Green Cache in hand. Even got to see what was possibly one of the numbers while I was there.
Cheers & thanks for a fun puzzle & hunt J & J

As Mr y'stassie's father was employed in the industry, the name of the cache made immediate sense and it wasn't long before we had a set of viable coordinates which were confirmed by the Coordinate Checker. Today we went to look for the cache which, due to the explicit hint, was located very quickly. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks J_&_J for any enjoyable puzzle and for the cache.

PS: There being no other logs, we will claim FTF at 11:30
