Normally I'll invest weeks into a multicache to make it enjoyable and just right. This time I was just tired from driving and surprised there was no cache here yet. Thorn between wanting to offer people a short recourse from the tiring monotony of driving and the desire to not place yet another tradi just for the point, I decided not to place a cache here after all. Then I had a bite to eat, found a filmcanister in my bag, put together a makeshift logbook with the nice staff's stapler and changed my mind. Enjoy :-)



Stage 0:
You could park at the given coordinates, but don't do that yet. Drive a bit around first and find the number of tall floodlights (=A) in the Arnwiesen reststation area. (so tall, they tower over almost everything here)
Of course if you are eager to get out of the car, that's no problem either. there aren't that many and you should be able to spot all of them if you walk around just a little bit.

A=  Number of floodlights in the area.


Stage 1:
Now park your car (should be lot's of space for that ;->) and approach the target coordinates. Spot the (quite prominent) building in front of you and count the number (=B) of ALL towers/chimneys/phalli(?) on top.

Come a bit closer now and find all the cocks. (=C)
If you've found them all (once again, there aren't that many) you might be surprised that even reststations have street numbers. Note down that number (=D) as well as the number of words (=E) on that plate. Then go find a comfortable place to calculate the final coordinates. :-)

B= Number of ALL towers/chimneys/phalli.
C= Number of cocks.
D= street number.
E= Number of words on street number plate.

Stage 2: Final

N 47° 06.[N2]'  E 015° 46.[E2]'

N2 = 208 + S * (D-B)
E2 = 103 + S * rev(A*B*C + 1)

rev(x) means reverse the number.
e.g. rev(123)=321. rev(12)=21. rev(1)=1.

If E is even, then S=1.  
If E is odd, then S=(-1).

Auf dem Heimweg letzte Woche gemacht und heute erst geloggt. TFTC

Auf dem langen Weg braucht man immer wieder eine Pause. Wie gut, dass es hier einen Rastplatz gibt, der auch einen Cache beherbergt.
Danke für den Cache

Found 18 August 2011 pri0n found the geocache

heute auf dem Heimweg einen kurzen Stopp eingelegt und bei großer Hitze den Multi schnell gelöst - dank punktgenauer Koordinaten rasch gefunden, TFTC!

Found 12 March 2011 Gustus found the geocache

Auf der nach Hausefahrt noch hier vorbeigeschaut.
Danke für den Cache.

Nun kann ich mit diesem Cache Frieden schließen.
Ich machte den Cache nun 3x und kam immer ganz wo anders hin, denn wo die Dose ungefähr liegt wusste ich.
Also solche Caches an der Autobahn zu legen.... naja! Wenn ich ein Tourist wäre, wäre ich Sauer. Denn für so was stehen zu bleiben, wäre mir die Zeit zu schade. Wenn schon Autobahncache, dann leicht und schnell! Da ich aber gleich in der Nähe wohne, war es kein Problem. Und für die Rechnerei, braucht man ja schon fast ein Mathematik Studium!

Der ganze Cache ist sehr speziell! Wäre als Mystery in einer Stadt besser aufgehoben.
