GC9AD6N Helena Statues and Sculptures Tour (Wherigo Cache) in Montana, United States created by Danero1919

This cache has been archived.

Danero1919: I’m done trying to find a new spot for this one. The new location is the only one in the vicinity of the capitol that I’m happy with, and I spent hours finding it. I’ve never had the reviewer bug me about a coordinate change that was still reasonably far from other nearby caches. Thanks for making all my hard work a waste of time, GeoCrater.

This is all over 40 feet. If I’m not mistaken, part of the reason for the long distance is so that, if caches are packed in an area, and one requires a slight coordinate change, it is still plenty far from the others, even if it happens to be within 528 feet of another cache after the coordinate change. You only care about the rules and not how geocaching actually works on the ground. I hope you’re happy, because I’m not.

Geocache Description:

This cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Wherigos are a special type of geocache that use Lua prorgrams to take people on some sort of tour or adventure. Wherigo cartridges can be downloaded to some GPS units, but are more commonly obtained through the Wherigo app for IOS or the WhereYouGo app for Android. Download the cartridge, click Start, and it will guide you all the way to the final cache.

You can download the cartridge for this tour here.

This tour consists of 10 different statues and sculptures found throughout the Helena downtown and capitol area, separated into three walkable segments. You should be able to complete them all within an hour. Parking may be difficult to find or may require a fee depending on when and what day you choose to complete the cartridge. While all the locations are outside, please only complete the catridge during daylight hours. The posted coordinates bring you to the parking lot for Stages 1-2.

Alternate Method:

Since I know that Wherigo can be glitchy or is completely unusable for some users, I have also added waypoints so this can be completed like a traditional multi. I ONLY suggest doing this if you cannot get the Wherigo cartridge to run, as it is less interesting and more complex than just following the cartridge from one waypoint to the next. If using the alternate method, the final coordinates are N 46 AB.CDE W 112 FG.HIJ

Checksum: A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J = 23

Congrats to PETE&RE-PETE for being the FTF!
