This new cache type is a way to help integrate the functionality of Wherigo into the geocaching experience. Think of it as an interactive multi or puzzle cache. This particular Wherigo can be completed by using a Garmin Colorado or Garmin Oregon or by using a Pocket PC.
You can go to Wherigo.com to learn more about the Wherigo concept.
