Geocache Description:


Follow the instructions below to setup on your device for wherigo's and to use the reverse wherigo cartridge for this cache. Good luck and have fun. This Wherigo converts your player into a virtual version of the "Reverse Cache Box" which tells you the distance to the cache, but not the bearing.

The cartridge was created by Waldmeister and is available to download from the wherigo.com website.

-Waldmeister-'s "The first Reverse Cache [WIG]" is the original cache in this family.

Your task is to find the cache by periodically querying your Reverse Cache Box for the distance to the final location. Try to use your Reverse Cache Box as few times as possible. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge is contained within it. The cartridge is multilingual. When entering the lanuage you can shorten it to 2 digits, example: English to EN.

THE PUZZLE
At the posted coordinates you will find the beginning of the story trail signs. Each sign is numbered and below each sign there is a bronze plaque stating the name/s of who donated it. To fill in the missing digits you need to find the right name and match that to the number on the story trail sign.

A=Tara Hizon. Find the correct sign number to find A.
B=Scott and Jennifer Lawson. Find the correct sign number to find B.
C=Tim Miller. Find the right sign and number. Add the two numbers together to form one number to find C.

Substitute the values for ABC in the three 6 digit numbers below.
562A28
404B10
C44592


To begin, you will have to type this code into your player:

It is suggested that you take the code with you on your journey. It will be needed if it becomes necessary to restart your player for any reason.

OPTIONAL

When you have reached the final, you will be given some statistics on your quest. If you wish, you may enter the details into your log, and also post the number of times you calculated the distance.

At the end of the game, you will be given a personal pass-code which you can enter into the cartridge if you select "create" rather than "play" when you start the cartridge. Save this code, and if you ever wish to create your own reverse cache, you can do so. -Waldmeister- would like you to inform him of your new edition of his handiwork. Please do not include hints in your log about where and how you found the cache or post photos that would give away the final location.

Have Fun!
