Geocache Description:

This Wherigo cache features a comprehensive scenic tour of the historic North Campus of the University of Georgia, listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972. The tour begins at Old College, where the campus started, and follows a mostly chronological path through history to the modern day. This cartridge will take approximately 60 minutes and requires about 0.75 miles of mostly flat walking.


The cartridge can be downloaded from the Wherigo website: North Campus Chronicle

The North Campus area of the University of Georgia main campus has a long and storied history dating back to 1785. Many original buildings remain standing and have been restored to their former glory, while the Great Depression era programs helped double the number of structures. There have also been many notable figures and traditions along the way. The close proximity of these historic features affords a perfect opportunity for a walking tour, augmented with a Wherigo chronicle from past to present. Be prepared to answer some detailed questions as the tour progresses. What better way to get immersed in the illustrous history of the area?

Please see the parking coordinates for our suggested locations. Depending on the walking distance, free parking is available during evenings and weekends, although any parking fees will be minimal even during the weekdays.

The final physical cache is big enough for small tradable items and includes a writing utensil, logbook, and a FTF prize. Please replace it exactly as found and make sure it "blends in" with the surroundings! This cache has been hidden with express permission, so cache with confidence.

Congrats to Carrot Killer for the FTF!
