Geocache Description:

This is a puzzle Wherigo with a geocache to find if you successfully complete it. It is best done with an iPhone as there are some audible alerts (switch on your external speaker) but these are not essential, all the information you need will be displayed on your device screen. You will need to have access to an email account from your iPhone to log your results and receive information. The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Our whereigo file is on the wherigo website Wherigo.com

Once you have the software needed the file you require is here - The Cartwheel Puzzle.

You will start at THE HUB in Horbury Carr Lodge Park. This is at the centre of a virtual cartwheel and there are 8 puzzles to solve, one at each major compass point around the rim. If you are good at puzzles you will quickly get to the end, probably in well under an hour, if you are not, it could take ages - so take a picnic!! The puzzles vary in difficulty, easy to start but getting more challenging as you progress, however you will never be left in a situation where you cannot continue if you get stuck. You don't need to get all (or any) of the questions right to get to the end but you will need to have at least 4 correct answers to qualify for a Completion Code and be given information to enable you find the geocache.

Read carefully how the answers have to be presented, they will be either text or a number. It is recommended that before you submit your answers you double check them for spelling mistakes as these could delay your progress. We also recomend that you turn predictive text off as this can lead to spaces being included in the answers, Wherigo will pick these up as errors if they are not deleted. You will need a pen or pencil and some paper. This Wherigo is best done when you have plenty of time and the weather is set fair.

Depending upon how things go we may be able to create a list of completions with scores. Let us know if you do not want to be included (view gallery). Good luck.

Parking is usually readily available on any of the streets adjacent to the park, but please do not park on the main road.

Any feedback or suggestions for improvements to this Wherigo would be useful, thanks.

NOTE: The Wherigo cartridge was updated on 12 April 2017 to amend the location of the geocache so you need to ensure you upload Version 2.1 of the Wherigo to avoid problems accessing the cache, although it will still work ok.
