This cache has been archived.

alienchauncey: This one has been active for 7 years and I happy to report that the original ammo can had survived the whole time. I even have the log with the original first to finder on it. The mosh is sadly shutting down this month and it time that I archive this one. Thanks to all the finder seeking fun and education here.

This Wherigo is nine short stages in front of the MOSH, as it known.  You will be asked questions at each stage about how we can help protect the environment. Download the Wherigo cartridge here to complete this cache. You will be able to find the cache at the last stage. You are looking for a camoed ammo can.

The Museum of Science and History was founded in 1941 as the Jacksonville Children's Museum. It was located in Riverside for the first 30 years or so. In 1969, the museum moved to its present location on the Southbank. Over the years, the museum changed its name a few times and the building has expanded to fit new exhibits. The MOSH has always proudly served Jacksonville, earning multiple awards for it's exhibits and programs.
