This cache has been archived.

Tchingal: An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

If you decide to proceed with this cache in the next 28 days please contact me via email and I'll unarchive it for you.

[b]This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today[/b]

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Geocache Description:

A short stroll and a view of Port Noarlunga beach to enjoy.

Since this is my first multi, the cache contains a Scratchie for the FTF.

You should be in a car park. So, park your car - if you have one.
As you stand on the walk/cycle way admiring the view of the estuary and beach, you can contemplate your counting skills.

Time to start...

Turn left and take a stroll along the path.
On the way you need to collect some numbers. They may (or may not) be in the following order.

There is a seat. Sit down and admire the view.
The seat has a number of wooden slats which are about 40mm x 40mm in section.
Multiply the number of wooden slats by 4 and then subtract 7.

You should have a two digit number between 25 and 55
A = first digit
B = second digit

Continue along the path.

As you walk past the steel guard rail you notice that it is supported by wooden posts.
Counting123
You should have a two digit number between 10 and 20 after you have counted the wooden posts.
C = first digit
D = second digit

You have arrived at a small playground.
There is a seat which has some wooden slats that you can sit on. Sit down, have a rest.
Counting123
You should have a one digit number between 5 and 9
E = number of horizontal wooden slats

While you are sitting on the seat having a rest and admiring the fence surrounding the small playground you notice that the fence consists of several vertical tubes. Each tube is about 20mm in diameter.
Mmm you think, I wonder how many there are?
Counting123
You should have a three digit number between 500 and heaps more than 500
F = first digit
G = second digit
H = third digit

Finally, sigh...
Counting123
J = the number of whelks

Now for the calculations.

Cache is located at:
S 35o (B - D)(B + J).(C + E)(F + G)(C + H)

E 138o (H - F)(A + B).(D - G)(G - C)(J + G)

Note: Between each pair of brackets ( ) you should have a single digit.
