For over a hundred years this part of Kansas City has been a hub of commerce, community and culture. From the grandeur of Union Station to the elegance of Crown Center you can find entertainment, history and beauty at every turn. The Link is an elevated pedestrian walkway that zig zags Pershing Road connecting points of interest and offering views of some of the best spots in KC. Come and join me on this linear intercache that begins at the modern marvel that is Union Station and snakes its way East asking questions and teaching about the history of the area.
As you are protected from the elements in an air conditioned/heated walkway this is a great cache when the weather outside would otherwise limit you. The Link itself is 100% wheelchair friendly but a bit of help will be needed to get to physical cache at the end.
The starting spot can be reached from parking at Union Station or by taking the KC Rail down Main St to the last stop on the southern end. Make your way to the 2nd floor of the SE corner of Union Station and you’re ready to step your way through the cache and through history. I hope you enjoy your experience and as always feedback is welcome.
An InterCache is an interactive geocache that is similar to a wherigo geocache but does not require special gps equipment or a phone application. It does however require a compatible smart device with a data plan and a browser.
To verify that your smart device is compatible, navigate to HERE with it then scroll down to the "Is My Device Supported?" heading and click on the "Test Device" button. Be sure to have your location services turned on and if prompted for location permission, choose to allow intercaching to see your location. Most Android and iPhone devices will work.

Please note: The Link is open 6 AM - Midnight each day.
