Greenough Mob Cache Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Geocaching HQ Admin:
Mob caches were published as an experiment using specific technology that required players to be in the same place and to enter a code at the same time to learn the final coordinates. This was an exception to the guidelines at the time and is not a publishable concept today.

The original site used for this purpose has been removed, and therefore, HQ has decided to archive all active caches originally intended to be solved using this method. Due to privacy laws, we are not seeking an alternative site at this time. We are respectfully requesting that the cache owner please remove the cache container and contents as soon as possible.

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


Mob Caches encourage you to meet up with a few friends and have some fun caching.

A Mob Cache is a Social Cache. In order to find the location of this cache, you will need to bring along some of your friends! The more friends you have, the easier it is to find the cache.

The number of devices needed for this cache has been reduced to TWO.

This cache was released for the IGA 2019 event. Originally TEN devices were needed to obtain the coordinates.

Preliminaries:

  • There is no cache hidden at the posted coordinates, but you will need to start within 10m of GZ.
  • There is no need to enter any commercial premises for any part of this cache!
  • There is plenty of room to park near the starting coordinates.

For First Timers:

You should pre-test that your PHONE'S BROWSER is compatible before attempting this cache. Check if you use Chrome or a Chrome-based Browser to see if it will work. To do this,

  1. Go the the Flash Mob URL: https://geotrailsw.com/mob/
  2. Click 'Allow' if you see a button requesting device location.
  3. Read the notice on the page - it explains what you need to do.

NOTE: If your S and E are zeros, your device's browser is NOT "location enabled": that is your BROWSER, not the device itself. You will need to fix this first - 'Google is your friend'.


If all is good

Go the Flash Mob URL:https://geotrailsw.com/mob/.

Use this MobID: 3810 and tap 'Submit'.

You will receive the directions and code for the next stage only when TEN fellow Geocachers are connected at the same time; i.e. your screen will show 10/10

It would be a great idea if someone in your group IMMEDIATELY takes a screen snapshot to minimise the risk of losing the data on the screen. OR, you could just write down the directions or coordinates for the final.

This is a Single-Stage Mob Cache. You will take a short walk to the final location, it is not far away.

A joint first to find is acceptable on this cache. Good Luck!
