Geocache Description:

Jamestown Geocaching Challenge - Jamestown Baseball

This is a Wherigo cache. You will need a GPS receiver that is Wherigo capable or a smart phone with an appropriate Wherigo app for your device. Sign in with your geocaching.com username to download the cartridge from wherigo.com

This is a one stop, multiple question Wherigo. It should not take much more than 15 minutes to complete.

The terrain is level and the entire area is blacktop or concrete sidewalks, except the area where the final container is located, which is mowed grass. A wheelchair can be taken to the final, but the container may not be retrievable by a person sitting in a wheelchair without a TOTT. In fact, a TOTT may be handy for people who are vertically challenged, hence the 2 terrain rating.

You will be required to make phone calls in order to complete this cache. While there is not fee to access the Talking Trail, any fees your cell phone provider charges you to make the phone calls are your responsibility.

You will need to be within 15 feet of the coordinates for the Wherigo cartridge to recognize that you are at the correct location. The Wherigo cartridge is setup to use Jamestown Talking Trail sign post as reference points. Our recommendation is to get the stop number and then use your GPSr or phone to get into the zone and make the call to answer the questions.

If you are already in the zone for a stop when you start to navigate to it, the cartridge will not recognize that you are already at the location. The solution is to walk away from the location and once you are 20-30' away, go back towards the location, the cartridge should pick up the zone change.
