Description    Deutsch  ·  English

Industrial 3 is the third in a series of three caches with increasing difficulty factor and of cause
also increasing fun factor (a "normal" Multi, a Mystery-Multi, a night-Multi) in Rostock.
Together with the first two Industrial caches, it contains references needed for searching the cache "Industrial bonus".

Experience industry ruins with abandoned buildings, technical units, graffitis and the conquest of the areal through nature.

The terrain is rebuilt gradually; supermarkets and enterprise building emerge here.
Further degradation will go on here, and many stations were also not accessible for a long time.
You should not wait too long for searching this cache therefore.

The tour is approximately 3 km long and can be done in several approaches or also at a day evening,
You can reach the first stations by car, bicycle or by foot (in arrival with public transportation).
In latter case, you should go to the bus stop "Schutow".

Entering of closed terrains or climbing over fences is neither allowed nor necessary.

GPS reception could be reduced somewhere, but is not necessary everywhere.

Some references to be sought and reflectors can be found only in darkness, therefore you cannot search all hints in daylight. If you start by daylight, please don't be act too crazy, you won't be the only person there!
Starting before 8:00 pm is not recommended though, because the area is too much populated then.

You require the following equipment objects:
- pencil and slip of paper. Sometimes also a digital camera helps if one is too lazy for writing.
- A well bundling flashlight (no flak spotlight needed) and sufficient batteries

You will DEFINITELY need the printouts of the five graffitis or a device for viewing them (mobile phone, tablet computer, notebook, ...).

Note! A few sporty efforts are necessary, and you should not look for this cache, if you suffer from elevator fear, claustrophobia or fear of darkness! There are some holes in the ground and occasionally also water, please be careful on where you step!
Don't wear your best clothes, you could become somewhat dirty.

The starting coordinates lead you to a parking lot near to the first station. A supermarket and some other enterprises are nearby.
The bus stop is also not far from there.

Station 1: Very near, two things lead into the water, they tell you secret A.

Station 2: From station 1, walk a couple of meters toward north. Disappear completely under the ground and search for the secret B.

Station 3: Enter some open building and look for the door that is shown on the picture (station 3a). On one side, you will find the N coordinate, on the other side the E-coordinate of station 4.
You don't have to break open the door; you can walk to both sides.
Moreover you must answer the following question:

What graffiti is in the room whose door frame bears the graffiti 3t?
3b -> secret C = 7
3c -> secret C = 9
3d -> secret C = 8
3f -> secret C = 6

Station 4: You must climb high. Look around using the flashlight. You will then see secret E.

Station 5: Orange will lead you now to the noth. You will find an abandoned unit made of stone and different metals. Position yourself in front of it, and bend down (your head doesn't have to touch the water). That thing tells you secret D. At the moment there is a metal fence surrounding the object. You will find secret D also on this fence.
Calculate now F=D+E, G=A-B and H=C-D.

Station 6 (Final): Move now to the coordinates N54° A.BCD' E012° 0E.FGH', the cache is hidden there.

Do not forget to note the reference for the bonus cache. It is the room number of graffiti 3e. The original bonus notice was gone with the door of the room (who needs just all these doors?). Replacement is now attached to the frame.

Please, do not publish any photographs showing hints or references (doors, the stations)!

Archived 29 December 2015 jennergruhle has archived the cache

Ich war heute noch mal beim Industrial 3. Der ist nun wirklich hinüber, es ist keine Reaktivierung in der ursprünglichen Art mehr möglich. Alle Gebäude sind nun eingezäunt, zugeschweißt und dicht genagelt.

Die Bonus-Info für den "Industrial Bonus" findet sich nun dort direkt im Listing.

Note 26 August 2015 jennergruhle wrote a note

Die heutige Überprüfung hat ergeben:
1. Station: ok.
2. Station: ok.
3. Station: nicht unauffällig begehbar, da von Brummi zugeparkt.
4. Station: nur noch schwach erkennbar, Hinweis neu angebracht.
5. Station: ok.
Finale und Dose: ok.
Fazit: bleibt erst mal deaktiviert.

Temporarily not available 18 August 2015 jennergruhle has disabled the cache

Station 3 ist momentan wohl nicht mehr zu gebrauchen. Die Graffiti als Hinweise waren wohl eine schlechte Idee, sie werden ständig übergesprüht. Früher waren die Hinweise an den Türen, aber die konnte jemand gut gebrauchen.
Ich muss in den nächsten Wochen mal Station 3 überarbeiten, und ganz andere Möglichkeiten finden um die Hinweise zu verstecken.

Found 23 November 2013 Chrispam found the geocache

in einer nachtrunde alles abgesucht und geloggt

Not found 26 November 2012 MML15 did not find the geoacache

Hallo Ihr lieben, nachdem ich jetzt über lange Zeit versucht habe Jennergruhle zu mailen ohne Antwort, schreibe ich "nicht gefunden"

Der 1. Hinweis wurde noch gefunden doch bei dem 2. stoppte es schon, nach gesamt über 3h umhergeirre geben wir schliesslich auf, es wurde zwar das Finale vermutet dank Hilfestellung in der Beschreibung, jedoch führte da kein Elan mehr hin um diesen ohne weitere hinweise nach zugehen.

Vielleicht kann mir ja mal jemand mit dem 2. Hinweis helfen, wir würden gerne selbst das Ziel mit kleinen Hinweisen schaffen.

Am besten per Mail: dynamic.waves@gmx.de
