Night Time Wherigo Cache

This cache has been archived.

S_38: After a check by a local it appears one or 2 of the waypoint containers are missing, and rewriting the cache will take away the "night" part. As this was intended for the nighttime views (also note blocked by a house) I am archiving this one.

Geocache Description:

Night Time

A wherigo with a difference.
I'm not saying it's going to be easy but it will be worth it.

Night Time

To complete this cache you'll need a few things...
Firstly you'll need it to be dark. It is a night cache after all.
You will need the ability to run Wherigo cartridges.
You will need to download the wherigo here
Night Time - Download
You will need a torch, also a UV torch, and a pen of course.
Decent footwear is advised and a moderate level of fitness or shear determination.

At the posted coordinates you will be standing a few meters North of a blue survey marker.
This is your starting point. You will need to have downloaded the Wherigo cartridge and start it here.
To the East you will see a gravel path and 2 timber posts leading out to the road.
Once you pass between the posts you have 10 minutes to complete the required stages of the wherigo.

Pass between the posts and follow the path to the road. Looking East search for a white reflector on the other side of the road (not the guidepost, although it is near there but up).
Stay on the North side of the road (the side you are already on) and opposite the first white reflector look for a trail. Start up this trail following the white reflectors (do not enter private property, there is a sign indicating where the private property begins, stay to the right of this sign).
Continue following the trail of white reflectors until you find a red reflector. Stop and search for a clue within 5m of each red reflector and when you find it use your UV and enter the numbers into the Wherigo. Continue on following the white reflectors and searching for clues at each red one. When you reach the 4th red reflector stop.

Assuming you have made the short 800m walk in less than 10 minutes and have entered the clues into the wherigo cartridge on your way you will now be given instructions to retrieve the final coordinates. The cache is a small sistema container with a log book and a few swaps. Don't forget where you are so you can get back again.

If you made a mistake or took more than 10 minutes don't despair. Just go back and start again. You will need to enter the clues into the cartridge within 20m of each red reflector and be within 20m of the 4th red reflector within 10 minutes to get the final coordinates.

Once you have the final coordinates take your time to catch your breath and enjoy the view. Note there are houses nearby so please use a bit of stealth and consider the fact you may be noticed.

Good luck and I look forward to reading your logs :)
