ENGLISH: Many authors penned their acts around this wonderful area. For this reason and due to the fact of its dark colour, the lake of Altaussee was named an inkpot.

Stage 1: THE PROMENADE
N1 = 47°38.532
E1 = 013°46.356
Ferdinand was one of the eponyms. Take the crossfoot of his year of birth for A.

Stage 2: THE LAKE
N2 = 47° 38. (30*A + 141)
E2 = 013° 46. (50*A + 80)
Here you can look up when the water level reached its maximum. Take the third digit of the year for B.

Stage 3: THE DEDICATION
N3 = 47° 38. (30*A + 30*B - 11)
E3 = 013° 47. (10*A + 10*B + 47)
How many letters has the second word of the plate? Take the number of letters minus 1 for C
.


Stage 4: HIS FAVORITE PLACE
N4 = 47° 38. (30*A + 30*B + 20*C - 77)
E4 = 013° 47. (10*A + 10*B + 20*C + 77)
He liked to pause at this place. Take the number of his full names letters (without the title of nobility) for D.
Hint: D=30

Stage 5: THE SAFE CONDUCT
N5 = 47° 39. (10*B + 3*D -32)
E5 = 013° 47. (10*B + 20*D + 19)
When the caves in the nearby wall of the Loser flow over after longer rainfalls, you have to cross a roaring river at this place. How many vertical sustainer can you find at the parapet? Take its number for E.

Stage 6: THE CACHE
N6 = 47° 39. 0(A + 2*E)
E6 = 013° 47. (10*A + 10*C + 70*E +54)

Good luck!

Found The geocache is in good or acceptable condition. 24 July 2024 ErnstValles found the geocache

Heute sollte es zur Abwechslung mal ein Spaziergang ohne viele Höhenmeter sein und so kamen wir auf die Runde um den Altauseer See. Dieser Oldie hier stand dabei fest auf dem Programm, also ging es im Uhrzeigersinn um den See. Die Stationen waren alle gut zu finden, nur bei D fand ich mich zunächst ratlos im Wald wieder. Als ich auf den Weg zurück und bis zur Weggabelung weiterging, offenbarte sich bald auch die Antwort auf diese Frage. Zu guter letzt wurde das Final angesteuert, welches fix gefunden wurde.

 

Schön das es den Oldie noch gibt! Ganz herzlichen Dank sagt ErnstValles
