Geocache Description:


Bank robbery

Background:

The Daltons apparently ran out of banks closer to home and decided to rob the bank in Kvevlax. They robbed lots of money and some diamonds. Although they were captured by none other than Lucky Luke, the loot was never recovered...

Being a geocacher you figure that you probably can find the loot (and maybe forget to return it). You figure that the Daltons need to have left some clues for themselves to be able to find it later on. This being the case, you need to perform your investigations outside bank hours.

Instructions:

You will need a Wherigo capable device (e.g. smartphone or Garmin) and a good flashlight.

The last part is *much harder* unless it is dark!

Disclaimer: In case it is not obvious, this adventure is purely fictional and no illegal activities need/should be performed!

The total distance of this adventure is close to 10km. However, most of the distance can be travelled by e.g. car. The distance on foot is well under 1 km.

First version of the cassette had a (buggy) time check, but that didn't work well so it was removed - however, you will have a better experience when it is dark.

Wherigo cassette:

Get the cassette from here

The casette has been tested using WhereYouGo on Android and on ipad (with SIM-card), but let me know if you encounter technical issues.

Make sure you have the latest cassette, as there were some issues with first versions.

Troubleshooting (Android/WhereYouGo):

The file should be placed in WhereYouGo folder.

Make sure that GPS is on (GPS menu, GPS on), and you may also want to check default settings as by default the GPS is automatically turned off, when e.g. screen goes black.

If you get a message about invalid cassette or somesuch, download it using a computer or another browser on the phone (e.g. Chrome or Opera) as the stock browser apparently corrupts the file.
