Winton Heritage Trail (Southland) Wherigo Cache

This cache has been archived.

Ruru_nz: The replacement cache has washed away, so time to rethink the final for this.
Won't be a five minute fix so have decided to archive.
The plus side is that there should be a new cache to entice the "townies" out and I should be able to use the existing wherigo. Fingers crossed.

Geocache Description:


Dust off the Wherigo app and take a tour of Winton's Heritage sites.

At each site you will need to (virtually) look around and collect any items you see.  These are the clues to let you locate the cache.

As with all Wherigo caches, you will need to download the 'cartridge' from here, and play the game at the posted coordinates to find the location of the cache.

  • Download the cartidge
  • Transfer to your device
  • Play the game
  • Find the cache
  • Log your adventure

If you haven't played a Wherigo game before, look for hints at my other Southland Wherigo, or check out http://www.thequirkydiva.co.uk/WhereigoandWhereyougo

This is a fairly complicated cartridge - it just grew! It may not play on some devices due to the larger than usual number of initial active zones. It ran fine on my smart phone, though it did hang a few times, so take precautions:

  • Save every time you collect an item
  • If you need to restart open the most recently saved slot
  • Take notes
  • Be patient
  • The cache difficulty reflects any "frustration level"

Teamwork is recommended - one to drive, one to navigate and maybe others to take notes and/or have several games running. There is a good chance that you will be able to visit every zone without getting out of your car.
