Kiwibirdman: I'm going to archive this one and perhaps re-make this one with an adventure lab cache.

Geocache Description:

Welcome to the newest extension of Edmonton's LRT network, the Metro Line!

This cache will take about 45 minutes to an hour to complete and return to the starting location (assuming you left your car nearby).

This cache is really not meant to be done by car and fines apply for driving a personal vehicle into a bus exchange. There is a 15-min layover at Kingsway Station by LRT.

Please use non-motorized wheels, your legs, or the LRT.


IMPORTANT: Read before proceeding...

What is an InterCache?

An InterCache is an interactive geocache. An intercache is a new way of creating a mystery geocache, where you can string together a combination of virtual and physical waypoints together. The entire geocache can be developed, edited, and played on your mobile phone's browser with no software required to download! Part virtual cache, part multicache, part puzzle cache, and part adventure.

How do you play?

First, make sure you have a compatible device. Go to intercaching.com on your smart phone and select the test button (do this outside for best results). If you are using a modern smart phone, it should be! Most Android and iPhone devices should work if you have location services turned on. You might not have a compatible phone... if not, you can make this a team effort with someone who does.

Let's Play!

If your device is compatible, then head on over to the stating coordinates and open MY INTERCACHE PAGE on your phone to start. At each of the stages along the Metro Line, you will see some places that I want you to visit. This will be a guided tour of the Metro Line! At each of the stages you will be asked a question. You must answer it correctly and be within the specified distance of the stage's destination in order to move on. There will be a distance and compass on the bottom of each destination screen.

Notes:

~ This is a new way of looking for a geocache so you may encounter some problems. The tests I ran personally were successful and I have done the whole exercise myself.
~ I recommend that you do NOT close the active InterCache browser window during play or you may have to start over.

I would appreciate hearing constructive comments on your experience. This is Edmonton's first and also my first. As always, thanks for playing, I hope you enjoyed the tour and the Intercache.

Special thanks to ChileHead for creating InterCaching!
