Geocache Description:

Every wondered just how big the inner solar system is? Well now you have the chance to find out with this multi cache which covers Mercury,Venus, Earth and Mars. You WILL NEED a scale map of the area which covers about 700m in each direction from the first stage, and one which has the scale displayed. You will also need a compass and ruler or some knowledge of maths or some nifty apps.

Some of the coordinates are not exactly pin point and as such you should use the hints and also note that most have some blue twine very close to the location. The containers are all DVD cases which contain a laminated card with some information on the planet and instruction for finding the next cache. The final is a tab lock box.

This multi cache is a scale model of the inner planets and at each location you can find out the exact size of the planets on this scale. The final stage has a piece of foam which contains four spheres which are a fairly good scale representation of the four planets, feel free to examine but please leave this in the cache.

Good luck and happy hunting...
