"Go outside, get into nature and make
your own discoveries!"
That is what Dr. Scott challenges his viewers to do at the end
of each Dinosaur Train episode. In support of this call to action,
The Jim Henson Company has hidden Dinosaur Train themed geocaches
nationwide with the help of local PBS stations and geocachers. To
find the location of other Dinosaur Train themed geocaches, simply
search for "Dinosaur Train" in the keyword search
option or check out this list of
Dinosaur Train Geocaches.
Each geocache celebrates a dinosaur featured in the Dinosaur
Train Field Guide on the PBS Kids website. This
geocache is the Gigantosaurus geocache. Gigantosaurus was one of
the largest known meat-eating dinosaurs, more than 40 feet long.
This Cretaceous giant is known only from Argentina, in South
America.
What is your favorite dinosaur? Be sure to tell us when
signing the logbook!
The cache is located at the Waimanalo Bay State Recreation Area
(a.k.a. Sherwoods) which is open from 6am to 7:45pm. Like
most places on this island there will be mosquitoes, so come
prepared.
Don't forget to write down the "Special Number" in the cache
that will help you find the Dinosaur Train Geocache:
Paleontologist.
