Geocache Description:

Lesmurdie was named after a corruption of the French "les merde", a rude commentary on the area by early settlers.

Oh all right, no, it wasn't, it was named after a shooting-box owned by the father of Mr. Archibald Sanderson, who owned most of the land in what later became the suburb of Lesmurdie.


The 282 bus occasionally deviates from its usual route along Grove Road to access the shopping centre and you'll find two bus stop markers at the waypoints. GZ is 153m from Stop One and 102m from Stop Two.

If you remember your high school geometry, you can calculate the GZ before going to search.
There was something about the squaw on the hippopotamus hide being equal to the sum of the squaws on the other two hides?
You might find UTM easier to use, since it's Cartesian. (Although we prefer polar coordinates, naturally...)

Alternatively, you could walk in a circle around one of these waypoints and check with the other one occasionally to see how close to the point you're getting...

There's two intersections, of course, but the cache is not in anyone's backyard!
