Geocache Description:

The cache is not located at the above co-ordinates. You will need to ensure you have the means to play wherigo cartridges in the field. For more information visit http://www.wherigo.com. If you're unfamiliar with Wherigo caches may I suggest you read that site thoroughly.

A simple Wherigo cache published for Beachie's Birthday Bash and Cutedeadkitty's Carnival in February 2013.

The puzzle might take 5 minutes to solve, it might take ages! But it doesn't involve a huge amount of walking like our other evil Wherigo cache. Visit the 'Related Web Page' link above to download the specific cartridge you need.

It's the old puzzle: you're a farmer, you need to carry a fox, a chicken and some chicken feed across a river, but your boat will only carry one of the three at any one time. If you leave the fox alone with the chicken, or the chicken alone with the chicken feed, some unplanned munching will ensue.

Close to the published co-ords you will see a small bridge. Either side of this bridge is the imaginary river bank for the purposes of the cartridge.

You just need to work how it's done, play this out on the cartidge and the final co-ords will be revealed. Thereafter it's a 5-10 minute walk to the final cache location.

You are looking for a cache a little smaller than a 35mm canister. You will need to bring your own pen.

Stealth will be required. If you get to GZ and there are too many muggles, may I ask you wait for a better moment.

Parking should be available not far away from the final location (and the starting location). Please park considerately.

Take care with geokids and geodogs near busy road.
