Geocache Description:

Take a tour of Tucson's historic theaters, and discover their beautiful architecture and fascinating history! Begin at the Temple of Music and Art in downtown Tucson, and eight locations later end at the Gaslight Theater on Tucson's East side. Low traffic times are recommended, unless you are not in any hurry. Depending on traffic you will need about 1.5 hours from the start to log signing. BYOP and paper.

In your log please mention your favorite stop.


Because the area near the last location is saturated with caches, we had to place the final about 2 miles away from the last location. :(

Tips about Wherigos: 1) As with all Wherigos, make sure you have uploaded the most recent version of the cartridge before you go. Often COs make changes to the cartridge and if you have the older version you will have glitches when you go to use it. So just upload it again the day you plan to run it. 2) If you are at a zone and there is a glitch of some kind, step 30 feet away and try to enter the zone again. 3) Save frequently during cartridge use. 4) To learn more about Wherigos: http://www.wherigo.com/

To play the cartridge, you will need a Wherigo-enabled device. (For Andriod the app is called "WhereYouGo") info here

Many thanks again to Ranger Fox and his user-friendly Wherigo Kit. His program is the reason we are publishing our eighth Wherigo.
