Geocache Description:

This Wherigo is the first in a series of three planned tours of major outdoor artworks on the UC Berkeley campus.  There is no story involved, just a pleasant walk or bike ride on a beautiful public campus.  We hope you enjoy this tour and welcome all comments through your logs.  There are ten locations to visit, and not all of them are bears.
 
The tour was created for your enjoyment using Earwigo.  
 
 See Related Web Page for the Link to the cache
 

Please note that if you are taking this tour in the summer of 2014, there is construction very near the third and fourth locations.  The locations themselves remain outside of the construction and are accessible to the public.  

Although the tour should take less than an hour, we recommend you find a two-hour parking zone on one of the city streets around Hearst and Euclid, or one of the campus fee lots (Upper or Lower Hearst Parking Structures - see waypoints).  Please be advised that city parking enforcers are very vigilant.  Enjoy!

The University of California, Berkeley is very proud of its Outdoor Art.  In 2000 they printed a brochure with a self-guided tour. The brochure is now out of print.

To find the cache, you must have a Wherigo player. Some GPS units have Wherigo built into them. Wherigo apps are also available for iOS and Android devices (e.g., smartphones or tablets with GPS). Please see www.wherigo.com for more information.

While on campus, you may also want to find some of the brilliant traditional and puzzle caches here.

TRIPLE PLAY INSTRUCTIONS (For those who want to tour the whole campus at one time)
The three tours may be played one at a time or consecutively. If played consecutively (one after the other after the other), plan for a few hours and, if you play them in a certain order (below), you will end close to where you began. Sequences for triple play are explained below.

There are three sequences wherein the final cache of the third cartridge is very near the first cache of the first cartridge, so, following any sequence below, if you park near the beginning of one cartridge, you will end close to where you parked.

Here are three sequences to follow if you are going to do all three back-to-back-to-back. 1. Bears Repeating; Bears Resemblance; Bears Witness. OR 2. Bears Resemblance; Bears Witness; Bears Repeating. OR 3. Bears Witness; Bears Repeating; Bears Resemblance.

Whether you play one at a time or all in a day, enjoy! This is a beautiful, park-like public campus, where all are welcomed to stroll and picnic.

Congratulations BerkeleyBoomers on your first Wherigo FTF!!!
