Wherigo


Requirements: You will need to have a device compatible with playing a Wherigo Cartridge to find this cache. You will also need a boat or swimming costume.

Geocache: After completing a task you will be given the coordinates and hint to a container and logbook.

Link: Download the cartridge from www.wherigo.com. V1.7 uploaded on DTG 271145AMAY15, please download the latest version as it includes updates following feedback from previous finders.

Time: It really depends how you want to tackle this cache. It isn't a cache and dash how ever you plan to tackle the task.

The walk: Walking isn't the best method, perhaps best to use a small boat. But you can do all of it without a boat but check the attributes.



Wherigo In late 2001 after running Geocaching.com for over a year, Jeremy Irish and Elias Alvord came up with an interesting challenge: How could they bring their favorite adventure games outdoors with GPS technology? After several years of experimentation and hard work they arrived at a solution. What if you could take video games outdoors? Wherigo is a platform that allows you to build location based GPS experiences on your computer and play them in the real world. Imagine playing Zork, Secret of Monkey Island or Myst, but in the park around the corner, or on the beach during your family vacation. Rather than clicking the mouse and selecting a location to move your character, you physically move from one location to the next to advance the story. Rather than searching for puzzle clues on a screen, you look for them in the real world. Using Wherigo, you can create interactive tours, adventure games and puzzles... the possibilities are endless.

Difficulty Rating: *** Challenging. An experienced cache hunter will find this challenging, and it could take up a good portion of an afternoon.

Terrain Rating: Between 4 and 5. Experienced outdoor enthusiasts only. (Terrain is probably off-trail. Will have one or more of the following: very heavy overgrowth, very steep elevation (requiring use of hands), or more than a 10 mile hike. May require an overnight stay.). While useful, does not require specialized equipment and knowledge or experience, (boat).
