We've taken the well known Chicken, Fox & Grain puzzle and made it into a playable Wherigo with a Squirrel, Fox & Acorn.We're sure most of you will know of the puzzle, but for those who don't, here it is in a nutshell! (See what we did there!) 
The park ranger is standing on one side of the river bank with a squirrel, a fox and an acorn. He needs to get to the other side of the river, taking the fox, the squirrel and the acorn with him.
However, Mr Elfin Safety has deemed the boat used to cross the river only big enough to carry the ranger, and one of the things he needs to take with him, so he will need to make several trips from one side to the other in order to get everything across.
In addition, he cannot leave the fox alone with the squirrel, or else the fox will eat the squirrel; and he cannot leave the squirrel alone with the acorn, or else the squirrel will eat the acorn. The fox does not like acorns, so can be left alone with that!
How will the ranger get everything across the river, without anything being eaten?
In this wherigo, you will play the part of the ranger, though you won't have to row a boat or cross a river! But, the two zones, between which you must carry the Fox, Squirrel & Acorn are on opposite sides of a body of water, though you can travel between them easily enough on foot. Please bear in mind that you may have to make several trips from one side to the other to complete the task and complete the cartridge. Depending on how many trips across the river you take it should take around an hour to complete, but allow for longer. The minimum distance is about a mile and a half.
Once you have safely transported all three items to the other side, you will be given the final coordinates for the cache location. You will need to sign the log book in the container to log this cache as a find. Merely completing the cartridge will not qualify as a find.
Whilst building the cartridge, we tested it on 3 devices, Android, Garmin, and iPhone.
We hope you enjoy our first wherigo - Good luck!
